Crystal Palace eased their relegation fears and exposed Claude Puel to more flak. The visitors were under pressure to produce a big result after Burnley and Newcastle won earlier in the day and they responded by claiming three points that leave them six clear of third-bottom Southampton.
Michy Batshuayi’s first goal for Palace was cancelled out in the second half by Jonny Evans, but two goals by Wilfried Zaha, one either side of a penalty by Luka Milivojevic, confirmed a valuable win.
