In spite of their injury woes, Newcastle have been the better side so far. As things stand Opta's live win predictor suggests that the Magpies have a 42% chance of victory; Crystal Palace's chance of picking up three points is rated at 29%.

Newcastle produced an expected goals tally (xG) of just 0.02 across the match, with just one shot in 90 minutes. Palace, in contrast, produced 16 shots — only denied by their own wastefulness, blocks from Burn and Schar, and two excellent Nick Pope saves.

LONDON - A header deep into second-half stoppage time from midfielder Daniel Munoz gave Crystal Palace a much-needed draw against Newcastle United in the Premier League on Saturday as the Colombian atoned for a bad miss earlier in the game.

Marc Guehi scored his second Premier League own goal, with both of them coming at Selhurst Park. It was Palace's fifth own goal in the competition since the start of 2023. Only Fulham and Sheffield United have suffered more in that time (seven each).

Munoz had missed two glorious chances earlier in the match but made no mistake in the 94th minute as he nodded past Nick Pope at the far post
