Kick-off of this 22nd day of the Premier League with a shifted multiplex where five matches took place on a slight delay. For the two remaining matches, Crystal Palace offered themselves a valuable success against Sheffield United 3-2. Despite the opener from Brereton (1st) and a second goal from Mcatee (20th), the Eagles came back twice through Eze (17th, 27th). It was the Frenchman Michael Olise who scored the winning goal in the (67th) and allowed his team to take 14th place, 6 points in front of the red zone.
In the other match of the evening, it was a little surprise since Newcastle won on the pitch of Aston Villa 3-1. A double from Schär (32nd, 36th) and an own goal from Moreno (52nd) were enough. Watkins’ reduction in the gap (71st) changed nothing. The Magpies made a nice jump in the rankings and occupied 7th place, three ranks behind the Villans, still 4th.
