Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha is excited to be playing with Christian Benteke.

The Belgian had hit some red-hot form for Palace before the current international break, and Zaha is enjoying the link-up he's producing with the summer signing.

"We just need to go away now and keep our heads down, come back and keep the momentum going," Zaha told the Croydon Advertiser.

"It's just about believing in ourselves a lot more now, because I think we have a really good team.

"And now we have a natural goal-scorer in Christian. Goals make a massive difference, so since he has started scoring everyone else has had to up their game really.

"It's a dream to work with someone like Christian. Any cross you put in, he is a known goal-scorers, so he will set someone up or get the goal himself.

"It gives me more confidence to cross the ball a lot more and play it into him. He is so good in the air so it makes it a lot easier for me, I can just play one ball.

"I don't have to try different things like putting it in along the ground, I can just put it in at the right height and I know he'll get on to it.

"Having him there is making a massive difference as I know he'll get on the end of everything – it is so much easier."
