Comments:

League position: 11th This was only Stoke City’s third defeat in their last 12 Premier League games (won six). Connor Wickham’s penalty was the first goal conceded by the Potters in the 542 minutes that captain Ryan Shawcross had played in the Premier League in this season. City had now kept just two clean sheets in their last nine home league games.

Comments:

League position: 6th Crystal Palace had now lost just one of their last seven Premier League games (won four). The Eagles had now lost only twice in their last 11 visits to Stoke City (won five). Connor Wickham scored from the penalty spot in the first minute of added time in the first half.
