Intro and Team News

|Another away game, another win! Saints were the only team in it, an excellent result and a great response to the disappointment of Saturday. Palace dangerman, Zaha was negated by James Ward-Prowse constantly winding him up. Without Zaha concentrating on the job at hand, Palace were toothless.
Two changes tonight, one forced, with Vestergaard replacing the injured Bednarek. The other was a decision by Ralph to rest Ings and start with Obafemi. Not much of a rest though, as Danny came on as a second half substitute.
James Ward-Prowse v Wilfred Zaha was a battle which raged all game and won conclusively by the Saints No.16
