Talisca, the Brazilian international player for Crystal Palace, has been absent from the team's match against Newcastle United due to injury.
The news comes as a disappointment for Palace fans, who were hoping that their star striker would be able to make a comeback in time for the crucial game. However, it seems that Talisca will not be available until after the break, leaving manager Roy Hodgson with a difficult decision to make about his starting XI.
Despite the setback, Hodgson is confident that his players can still compete at a high level without their key player. He has praised the performances of his substitutes and has hinted that he may have other options up his sleeve for the upcoming fixtures.
Meanwhile, Newcastle United will hope to continue their impressive form against a weakened Palace side. The Magpies have won three of their last four league games and have been performing well on both ends of the pitch under new manager Rafael Benitez.
Overall, it looks like this match could go either way, but Palace will need to show some resilience if they want to secure a positive result.
