Palace pair face late fitness checks
Posted Friday, April 13, 2018 by PA
Strikers Christian Benteke and Alexander Sorloth face late fitness tests before Crystal Palace host Brighton on Saturday.
They have returned to contention following respective groin and hamstring injuries, but while Jeffrey Schlupp is nearing a first-team return following an ankle injury, the Brighton fixture will come too soon.
Joel Ward, Scott Dann, Jason Puncheon, Bakary Sako and Connor Wickham remain long-term absentees.
Brighton will be without Davy Propper through suspension.
The Dutch midfielder starts a three-match ban after Albion failed to get his red card against Huddersfield overturned.
But winger Anthony Knockaert returns to the squad after completing his three-game suspension.
