Comments:

League position: 16th Crystal Palace had now won two of their last 11 games in the Premier League (lost six). Only Chris Armstrong (23) and Andrew Johnson (21) had now scored more goals in the Premier League for the Eagles than Wilfried Zaha (20). Wilfried Zaha had now scored in consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since March 2015 against Queens Park Rangers and Stoke City.

Comments:

League position: 13th Brighton and Hove Albion had now conceded in each of their last 13 games in the Premier League; the longest current such run in the competition. Glenn Murray became the first former Crystal Palace player to score against them in the Premier League since Leon McKenzie in April 2005 for Norwich City. This was Albion's 100th away game in the top division (won 15, lost 58).
