Our Crystal Palace fans here in the Transfer Tavern are gearing up for what is set to be a crucial game in terms of their survival hopes this season later today.
The Eagles were looking in trouble at one point this year but Sam Allardyce has done his usual magic trick in turning a side around and they now look on the brink of safety.
Indeed, if they can build on recent wins against Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool with victory against Burnley this evening they should feel confident of staying up and then they can begin to plan for the future.
And that future could turn out to be very exciting indeed with The Times reporting that Chinese investors are looking into potentially taking over the club in the future.
With the amount of money Premier League sides can access these days, having rich owners to help keep pace with the top clubs is vital and this story could herald a new era for Palace.
Nothing is certain, though, and so we’ll have to just wait and see how this one pans out.
Thoughts, Palace fans? Let us know below!
