Crystal Palace vs Newcastle United LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction

Own goal Addji Keaninkin Marc-Israel Guéhi

It's one-way traffic at the moment, as Palace are penned into their defensive third. Barnes brushes by Lerma with ease, so the latter brings down his opponent. That'll be another set-piece opportunity for the Magpies.

An inswinging corner by Gordon causes Palace some problems at the near post, but the hosts eventually clear their lines. Newcastle build again, but it all comes to nothing once more.

A hopeful cross in from the right almost finds Mateta in the area, before Livramento makes a mess of his attempted clearance. Snuffing out the danger, Pope races off his line and gathers the ball, before launching Newcastle away on a quick counter-attack.

Crystal Palace kick off, and we are back under way in London!

No other team has scored fewer first half goals than Newcastle in the Premier League this season (four), while just three of Palace's 10 top-flight strikes have been scored at home - also a league-low total. Perhaps this scoreline should come as no surprise, then, as both sides seem short of confidence in the final third.

A first half heavily disrupted by stoppages ends 0-0 between Crystal Palace and Newcastle United, neither of whom have been able to record a single shot on target. The early stages were marked by a series of injuries to Newcastle players, but only Isak was ultimately forced to come off, with Gordon moving inside to replace him up front. It was Palace who had the better of a sparse collection of chances, with Munoz missing by far the best opportunity to break the deadlock. The Eagles' xG therefore stands at 0.59 to the Magpies' meagre 0.02 so far, and surely this game can only get better after the break.

HALF-TIME: CRYSTAL PALACE 0-0 NEWCASTLE UNITED

Eze slips Mitchell away down the left touchline, and the latter attempts to sling a cross into the box. A deflection takes it behind for a corner, from which Lacroix heads wide of the target again - this time comfortably past the right-hand post.

Still awaiting its first shot on target, this match drifts into first-half stoppage time. There will be at least five minutes added, following a series of injuries to Newcastle players.
