Tony Pulis returns to his old stomping ground as West Brom visit Crystal Palace. Opta crunches the numbers so you don't have to.

"The Baggies have enjoyed just two wins in their last 14 PL trips to London (D5 L7)."

The draw is 3.711/4.

The six Premier League meetings between these two sides have followed a pattern of a win for Palace, followed by a draw, followed by a win for West Brom. If the pattern is to continue, the Eagles will need to win again. Palace are 1.834/5 to win.

West Brom have only failed to find the back of the net in one of their six Premier League clashes with Crystal Palace. Over 2.5 goals is 2.245/4.

So far the Eagles have won more games (14 v 11), scored more goals (36 v 26) and averaged more points (1.72 v 1.46) under Alan Pardew than in Tony Pulis' reign at the club. The draw half-time/Palace full-time double result is priced at 4.94/1.

63% of the points (27/43) that Palace have won under Alan Pardew have come away from home, with almost twice as many victories achieved on the road than at Selhurst Park (nine wins away, five wins at home). You can lay Crystal Palace at 1.855/6.
