Latest Crystal Palace vs Stockport football review

Early exits from the FA Cup have become a familiar part of Palace's history in recent years, but the club have also enjoyed some highs in the long-standing competition, reaching the semi-finals in 2022 and finishing runners-up in 2016.

This season has not started smoothly for Oliver Glasner's team, when they suffered 5 defeats and 3 draws in the first 8 matches of the national championship campaign.

However, since then, they have lost just two of their next 12 games, and most recently showed signs of revival with a 1-1 draw against Chelsea.

Despite improving form, the home team has only won four times in the Premier League this season and is currently just five points above the relegation zone in the Premier League.

A major problem for Palace is their ineffective attack, with only three teams scoring fewer than their 21 goals in the Premier League this season.

With League One opponents visiting this weekend, the home side will be looking to regain some confidence in attack, while their opponents are also on fire as they look to secure back-to-back promotions after winning League Two last season.

Stockport climbed to third in the table at the end of November, but a recent run of poor form with just two wins in eight games has seen them drop outside the play-off places.

The biggest driver of County's progress has probably been the goals of Louie Barry, who remains the league's top scorer with 15, despite his recent recall from Aston Villa.

Filling the void left by Barry will certainly be a challenge, and going into a cup tie without their most potent striker will certainly make the task of beating a Premier League side difficult.

The Hatters have struggled away from home this season, and although their away record isn’t the worst in League One, they have only managed three wins on the road in the league.

To progress to the next round, they will need to end their poor run with a first away win since November. Under Dave Challinor, Stockport have suffered three defeats in their last four away games.

If successful, it would be the first time they have reached the fourth round of the competition since 2001. That year, Stockport were eliminated in the fifth round after defeat to Tottenham Hotspur.

In contrast to their opponents, the visitors had to go through two matches to reach the third round, with home wins against Forest Green Rovers and Brackley Town in the previous rounds to get a ticket to the third round.
