League position: 17th Newcastle United had now gone four games unbeaten in the Premier League for the first time since October-November in 2014. They moved out of the bottom three for the first time since February and with two games to play having now lost only one of their last eight home games in the Premier League (won four).

Comments:

League position: 16th Crystal Palace had now not won a Premier League away game since 19 December 2015 (lost five). The Eagles had now conceded in each of their last nine Premier League away games. Ex-Newcastle United midfielder Yohan Cabaye had scored his previous four penalties in the Premier League before his 70th minute attempt in this game was saved by Karl Darlow.
