Comments:

League position: 10th Crystal Palace had now won only three of their last 11 Premier League home games (lost seven). Nine of the Eagles' 13 Premier League games so far in the 2015-16 season had now been goalless at half-time.

Comments:

League position: 18th This was Sunderland's second win in their last 16 Premier League games (lost nine). In his 442nd game, this was Black Cats' boss Sam Allardyce's 150th win as a manager in the Premier League. Only four others had so far reached this milestone (Sir Alex Ferguson [528], Arsene Wenger [422], Harry Redknapp [236] and David Moyes [190]). Jermain Defoe had now scored seven goals in his nine starts for Sunderland in all competitions in 2015-16.
