ODSONNE EDOUARD NEWS

Three shots in defeat Edouard attempted three shots (one accurate) in Saturday's 4-0 loss to Newcastle.

Impact Despite Newcastle's dominance, Edouard managed more shots than any other player on the pitch. The striker has four goals so far and is on course to beat his previous best of six in a season. After Friday's match against Spurs, Palace face a run of three winnable fixtures and Edouard will fancy his chances of increasing his tally.

Quiet outing versus Forest Edouard created one chance, sent in one inaccurate cross and suffered one foul during Saturday's scoreless draw against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Edouard returned after missing the previous match due to a hamstring injury but didn't perform as he was doing most of the times before the setback, being a non-factor on offense and even failing to attempt a single shot. With four goals over seven league starts, the forward is still Palace's top scorer this season and he'll try to bounce back during next Saturday's visit to Newcastle.

Left out of press conference Edouard (hamstring) wasn't mentioned by manager Roy Hodgson in his press conference ahead of Saturday's match against Nottingham Forest.

Impact There have been reports of Edouard pictured in training this week, but he's only been out two weeks with his injury and it'd be a massive surprise to see him in the starting XI Saturday. Still, Hodgson could be playing things close to the vest and following Eberechi Eze's injury, there's a chance Edouard could get the call alongside Jean-Philippe Mateta in a revamped formation.

Impact Edouard will miss one Premier League match, though it seems as though the hamstring injury isn't as serious as originally feared. Edouard will hope to get back on the pitch for an Oct. 7 clash with Nottingham Forest. In the meantime Jean-Philippe Mateta is likely to take over in the starting XI.

Impact It's unknown why Edouard hasn't been assessed yet unless he has some swelling, which would be a bad sign for this injury. He won't play in the midweek Cup match and Hodgson figures to have a firm timeline for the striker in his next press conference. At this point, it's unlikely Edouard will start Saturday, with Jean-Philippe Mateta expected to take on the starting role.

Impact Edouard has seen major minutes in the opening stages of the Premier League and Crystal Palace are struggling with a thin squad. With that in mind Edouard will likely be rested for Jean Philippe Mateta on Tuesday even if the hamstring injury proves to be minor.

After two disappointing campaigns since joining Palace, this could be a sign of better things to come for the forward during year three. Up next for Edouard is Aug. 21 home opener against Arsenal.

Late test for Forest trip Edouard (undisclosed) is considered a late-fitness test for Saturday's trip to Nottingham Forest, according to manager Patrick Vieira.

Impact Edouard missed last weekend's match and wasn't risked midweek, but he'll travel with the club and be a late call Saturday. There's a decent chance he doesn't start given the lack of training and that Palace were plenty capable without him in the attack, as Wilfried Zaha took up a more central role, while Jordan Ayew, Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise are all available to play on the attacking wings.
