Crystal Palace climbed out of the relegation zone for the first time this season with a fantastic late comeback to beat Watford 2-1 at Selhurst Park this evening (December 12).
Scott Dann captained the side in place of the injured Mamadou Sakho, whilst Julian Speroni made his 400th appearance for the club.
Marco Silva changed his system to a 3-4-3, bringing in Sebastian Prodl and Jose Holebas for Roberto Pereyra and Marvin Zeegelaar - who was sent off against Burnley for a two footed lunge on Steven Defour.
Watford came out the blocks in their usual quick fashion and snatched an early lead in the third minute - Richarlison was afforded far too much time down the left and his cross to the back post was headed in by Daryl Janmaat to make it 1-0.
