Leicester v Crystal Palace (BT Sport 1, 1730 KO)
Roy Hodgson will reach a milestone on Saturday when he becomes the oldest manager in Premier League history, aged 71 years and 198 days old.
The Palace boss surpasses Sir Bobby Robson's record by six days and will be hoping to get a vital away win at Leicester to move further clear of the drop.
The Eagles should be fine avoiding relegation. They are just three points clear of the bottom three, but have gone without defeat in their last five outings in all competitions.
As Palace's manager celebrates a milestone, the other is in danger of losing his job. Claude Puel's Foxes may be 12th and eight points clear of the bottom three, but they have won just once in 2019.
Luka Milivojevic scored the only goal in the reverse fixture at Selhurst Park in a 1-0 win for the hosts in December and there may not be much in it again between two sides of a similar quality.
Betting guide
Prediction: Leicester 1-2 Crystal Palace (Sky Bet odds: Price Boosted to 14/1)
The Foxes may have had a tough run of fixtures of late and did perform well at Tottenham, but there appears to be some nervousness playing in front of their own fans at the King Power, with defeats in their last three - Man United (forgivable given their run), Southampton and Cardiff.
Best bet: Draw no bet - Crystal Palace at 8/5
The option of backing the away side in draw no bet provides insurance in case these are both evenly matched and share the points. It was tempting to back an away win at around 27/10 but the great price on draw no bet makes it worth a look.
