Stoke City-Crystal Palace Preview (The Associated Press)

Crystal Palace are aiming to finish their Premier League campaign on a positive run of form as they welcome Stoke City to Selhurst Park on Saturday. Things haven't quite gone the way manager Alan Pardew would have liked this season, as the Eagles got off to a strong start with four wins in their first seven league matches, but they suffered through an almost season-crippling 14-match winless run during the winter months which finally ended with a 1-0 victory over Norwich City on April 9. Despite the poor form, Palace (10-9-17) can call their season a success if they manage decent results in their final two league games and win their first FA Cup title in franchise history May 21 by defeating Manchester United in a rematch of the 1990 final.
