Crystal Palace receives huge boost as Wilfried Zaha makes comeback after nearly TWO months out
Saints manager Roy Hodgson has had a rocky start to his debut season at Selhurst Park but is hopeful the return of Zaha will be a turning point for his team
CRYSTAL PALACE star Wilfried Zaha will make his comeback from injury in Palace's game on Saturday against Chelsea.
The flying winger has been absent for the struggling Eagles since the opening day of the season through injury.
The 24-year-old had his knee brace removed last month after picking up the knock in the 3-0 home defeat to Huddersfield.
And now he is in the starting line-up for the Premier League's bottom club after returning to training last week.
He is a integral part Palace's team and his performances last season helped to keep Palace in the top-flight under Sam Allardyce last season.
He scored seven goals and provided nine assists to propel the Eagles to safety.
