Crystal Palace rubberstamped Premier League survival and ended a winless run of five games with a 2-0 victory at Sheffield United. Crystal Palace: Guaita (6), Ward (6), Kouyate (6), Cahill (7), Mitchell (6), Milivojevic (7), Eze (9), Townsend (7), Schlupp (7), Benteke (8), Zaha (7). Crystal Palace swapped two in their starting XI as Gary Cahill and Jeffrey Schlupp came in for Scott Dann and Jairo Riedewald. Hodgson could instead depart content, his future at the Palace helm still unclear but his side's Premier League status secure once again. Christian Benteke's opener (66 seconds) was Crystal Palace's earliest Premier League goal since James McArthur's strike against Everton in November 2017 (51 seconds).
