Marc Guehi, Michael Olise and Sam Johnstone: Crystal Palace injury news and latest return dates

Crystal Palace goalkeeper Sam Johnstone is seeing a specialist amid fears he could miss the rest of the season through injury.

Crystal Palace have returned from their warm-weather training in Spain and all attention has now turned to their game against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League this weekend. The Eagles conceded painfully with the last kick of the game to draw against Luton in their last league game. 

Those two points dropped mean they are still living dangerously and have managed one win under new boss Oliver Glasner which came against struggling Burnley. The Eagles impressed largely against Spurs before losing and can count themselves unlucky not to take all three points against Luton. 

They have also been without a number of the most important players, Eberechi Eze has been in and out of the team while Michael Olise is only trying to be ready for the game against Forest this weekend.

Olise has not played since being forced off against Brighton earlier in the year. Then there is the engine of the team, Cheick Doucoure who will be lucky to play again this season due to a calf injury. The absence of the former Lens midfielder has had a significant impact on the team.

Other key players have also been on the treatment table including Marc Guehi who missed the last three games and England duty due to a knee injury. He's had to take surgery but is making progress lately at Copers Cope Rd.  Goalkeeper Sam Johnstone has picked up an injury while with England.

There are eight points between Palace and Forest and if the Eagles can get players back in time they'll hit the magic 40 points which normally ensures Premier League survival.

So with that in mind, here is the list of injured Eagles players and their return dates:
