- 15' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 20' Newcastle United FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 25' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Sven Botman suffering a number of foals already.

- 76' Another substitution for Crystal Palace FC to replace Yeremy by Daichi Kamada on 76 minute.
- 80' What a moment for Jean-Philippe Mateta! That strike on 80 puts his side firmly in control.
- 84' Nick Woltemade is ready to make an impact after coming on for William Osula at the 84 minute mark.
- 89' Newcastle United FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 90' Aaron Ramsdale has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 90.
