Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha self-isolating after testing positive for coronavirus ahead of Premier League clash against Burnley away

Crystal Palace were dealt a huge blow ahead of their Premier League clash at Burnley on Monday evening after Wilfried Zaha tested positive for coronavirus.

Michy Batshuayi has replaced the Ivorian winger in Palace's starting line-up for the top-flight encounter at Turf Moor against Sean Dyche's struggling Burnley.

Palace confirmed Zaha was self-isolating when announcing their starting XI on Monday as they look to kick on following their emphatic 4-1 victory over Leeds last time out in the Premier League.
