Schedule Weekend of April 24th

The good news this week is that Lee Chung Yong finally got back on the pitch in a match with the Crystal Palace's U21s and scored a goal and played very well.  This points the way to Lee Chung Yong at least making the bench this weekend with a possibility of making his Crystal Palace PL debut.

Koo Ja Cheol looks to have returned to training but its unclear if he will be right back in the starting XI with competition for his spot also getting healthy coinciding with indifferent form for Koo.  I'm leaning to that he gets another start for now but wouldn't be surprised with a bench spot.

Park Joo Ho should continue to start.  With Tuchel now comfirmed as Dortmund's next manager, the rumor mill has already started to churn about Park Joo Ho following Tuchel out there.  We'll see if it comes to pass.

Hong Jeong Ho will probably start again.

Ji Dong Won has been unused so I expect a bench role for him.

Son Heung Min should start though Schmidt has started to rotate his guys more and may get a break here.

Kim Jin Su was left off the squad for what the team site termed a break from all the matches he has had.  A good portion may have been mental from poor outing previous week and concussion.  He will probably return to starting XI.

Lee Chung Yong as noted looks to be ready for first team action again.  Given Crystal Palace's good form (outside last week), I am expecting a bench role for him to start, with hopefully a small cameo at the end to get him on the pitch.

Yun Suk Young looks to be back this week, though maybe not right back into starting spot.  I think he should start though a large chance he's on the bench.

Ki Sung Yueng will look to get back on track vs Newcastle.  He should start and will look to bounce back from bad performance last weekend.

Kim Bo Kyung has been a regular starter and should do so with the sliver of hope to avoid relegation still out there.

Suk Hyun Jun looks to be getting in form and should start.
