Crystal Palace have arguably been the big underachievers so far in the Premier League and they desperately need a win at Nottingham Forest tonight to spark their season into life.
Oliver Glasner had the Eagles flying after taking over last term and they finished the campaign as one of the form teams in the division.
But Palace just haven't clicked in the new season and sit in the bottom three after failing to win any of their seven games so far.
They need to start getting wins on the board but it won't be easy on the road against a Nottingham Forest side who have made a flying start.
The bookies had Forest down as fourth favourites for the drop before a ball was kicked but they sit 12th and have lost just once in the league all season.

Nottingham Forest vs Crystal Palace top betting tips
These sides have been involved in a lot of stalemates, with Forest drawing four of their games and Palace finishing level three times. That makes the draw appealing at 9/4 with Betano but the half-time stalemate is a safer bet at 21/20.
Nuno Espirito Santo's side have had a problem with discipline in recent games, picking up red cards in two of their last three Premier League outings.
With Palace scrapping for points this match could be fiery so I like over 5.5 cards at 13/10 with Unibet.
Some stats bets also catch the eye, with Forest stopper Murillo 13/8 at Bet365 for over 1.5 fouls and winger Callum Hudson-Odoi a whopping 7/1 for an assist with the same firm.
Valencia vs Las Palmas top betting tips
There's a basement battle in La Liga tonight as rock-bottom Las Palmas visit a Valencia side sitting just one place and three points ahead of them in the table.
While it's no great surprise to see promoted Las Palmas in the drop zone, Valencia's struggles are more of a shock given they finished ninth last term.
Club legend Ruben Baraja faces a fight to turn things around but Betano make Los Che 8/13 hot favourites for a win tonight.
Valencia have drawn a blank in their last three games so I'm going to combine the home win with under 3.5 goals, which pays 45/40 in a bet builder.
We could see a lot of cards with both sides desperate for a win and over 57.5 booking points pays evens with Betfred. Las Palmas stopper Alex Suarez has two yellows in his last three outings and is 37/20 at Betano to go in the book again.
Hellas Verona vs Monza top betting tips
Monza are the only side in Italy's top flight still searching for a win and they have a road trip to Verona tonight as they look to get off the mark.
The Biancorossi have established themselves as a Serie A side with mid-table finishes in the last two seasons but if their form doesn't pick up they will face a fight to avoid relegation back to the second tier.
They can take a bit of heart from a 1-1 draw with Roma in their last outing but Betano still make Monza 11/5 outsiders for a win tonight.
Verona sit 12th but their form isn't great, with last week's 2-1 win over Venezia snapping a three-game losing streak. We've seen lots of goals in their games so over 2.5 strikes looks good at 13/10 with Betano.
Verona have picked up the most cards in their last three outings so backing them for most booking points could pay off tonight at 7/5 with Betfred.

WNBA 1am ie Sunday night / Monday morning New York Liberty v Minnesota Lynx
Everyone gets what they want, a fifth and final deciding game in New York. Whilst there has been little between the teams in scoreline, with each winning once home and away, there have definitely been times during those games where Lynx looked to have no answer to the Liberty, and that’s how I see it going tonight. Stewart has received criticism for her game 4 performance but I have my theories about that and I think we’ll see her dominate the court along with Jonquel Jones.
Liberty -2.5 to win Q1. Evens
Stewart +1.5 made 3s 5/4
Jones over 22.5 points + rebounds 8/11
For a spicier return: NY-4.5 to win and over 156.5 total points in game 11/5
