Crystal Palace vs Leeds Prediction: Strand Larsen to have a pleasant afternoon

Crystal Palace came from behind to see off Tottenham Hotspur in the first half in their last Premier League outing. The Eagles are now 10 points clear of the relegation zone. They welcome Leeds United to Selhurst Park on Sunday (14:00 GMT, Sky Sports Football), with the Whites just three points above the drop zone.
Below you will find my Crystal Palace vs Leeds predictions, featuring the latest team news and match odds.

Team News
Daniel Munoz faces a battle to make the Palace squad following his latest injury spell. Cheick Doucoure (knee) and Eddie Nketiah (hamstring) are sidelined for the Eagles.
Jean-Philippe Mateta returned to action in midweek against AEK Larnaca, so the striker may be in line for more minutes on Sunday.
Leeds boss Daniel Farke is expected to field a similar team to the one that was beaten by Sunderland in their latest league outing. Joe Rodon and Dominic Calvert-Lewin are expected back in the side after being rested in last week's FA Cup tie against Norwich City.
It remains to be seen if Noah Okafor has overcome his recent hamstring issue to be involved on Sunday.
Crystal Palace vs Leeds Predicted Lineups
- Crystal Palace: Henderson; Canvot, Lacroix, Riad; Johnson, Wharton, Hughes, Sosa; Sarr, Pino; Strand Larsen
- Leeds: Darlow; Justin, Rodon, Struijk, Gudmundsson; Bogle, Stach, Ampadu, Longstaff, Aaronson; Calvert-Lewin
Crystal Palace have won three of their past five matches in the league and they are 7/5 to come out on top here.
The draw is on offer at 23/10 (implied probability of 30.3%) and this has been the outcome in each of Leeds' last three away trips in the top flight.
The Whites are 2/1 to end their four-game winless streak and complete the double over their hosts.
Each of Leeds's previous three league fixtures have gone under 2.5 goals, which is available here at 8/11.
Crystal Palace vs Leeds Stats
- Palace have lost just 2 of their last 6 PL matches
- Leeds have drawn each of their previous 3 away games in the league
- Both teams have scored in each of Leeds' past four away fixtures in the top flight
- Jorgen Strand Larsen has 3 goals in 5 PL appearances for Palace
Double Chance & BTTS - Crystal Palace or Draw & Yes @ 6/4
It may have only been against Spurs, but a comeback victory should give Palace plenty of confidence ahead of their home clash with Leeds. The Whites have lost three of their last four home games in the league, so they will be hoping for better fortune on their travels.
The visitors have drawn each of their last three fixtures on the road in the Premier League, and given the points being picked up by teams around them, a victory here could go a long way.
However, Palace have won three of their previous five outings in the league and Leeds haven't tasted three points in any of their previous four games in the top flight.
I think the sensible play here is to cover Palace and a draw, as well as BTTS - Yes, which has been successful in each of Leeds' past four away matches in the Premier League.

Anytime Goalscorer - Jorgen Strand Larsen @ 13/8
Before joining Palace in the winter transfer window from Wolves, Jorgen Strand Larsen had just one Premier League goal to his name in 2025/26. This was a huge drop off following his 14-goal last term.
The Norway international has been given a new lease of life in his new surroundings and he has netted three goals in his first five league appearances for the Eagles. His latest came against Spurs on March 5, so he should be in a confident mood heading into Sunday.
