Crystal Palace 1-2 Aston Villa LIVE! - Guehi consolation Premier League result, match stream and latest updates today

Crystal Palace saw their seven-game unbeaten streak come to an end at home to Aston Villa on Saturday afternoon.

Marc Guehi’s late consolation goal might have made it interesting towards the end but, for the most part, Palace did not manage to convince despite the return of Eberechi Eze.

Indeed, they did not have a shot on target until the 80th minute and though they did manage to dominate the game in the second-half in terms of possession, did little to trouble Emi Martinez in the Villa goal throughout.

Patrick Vieira threw almost every attacking option he had on in an effort to try and change the game but, having conceded on the second-phase of a set-play in the 15th minute from Matt Targett, could not sustain attacks before John McGinn made sure of the three points.

Full-time

16:59 , Jonathan Gorrie

A late goal wasn’t enough for Palace who, frankly, deserved little out of that.

GOAL: Crystal Palace 1-2 Aston Villa | Marc Guehi ‘95

16:55 , Jonathan Gorrie

95:00 - Good ball in from a corner and Marc Guehi stabs home.

They couldn’t, could they?

GOAL: Crystal Palace 0-2 Aston Villa | John McGinn ‘85

16:46 , Jonathan Gorrie

85:00 - Stunning strike from McGinn, who curls home from just outside the box.

CHANCE FOR PALACE

16:41 , Jonathan Gorrie

81:00 - Great work from Gallagher, who finds Edouard (via a nutmeg) and the Frenchman has a shot.

On target but Martinez has it covered.

Looking much better in the last few minutes.

CHANCE FOR PALACE

16:40 , Jonathan Gorrie

79:00 - Benteke is found by Tomkins with a cushioned header and the Belgian spins before hitting a volley over his head.

Better from Palace but Martinez saves well.

First shot on target.

Palace going all out

16:36 , Jonathan Gorrie

75:00 - Edouard, Benteke, Olise and Eze are on the pitch.

Palace have to start creating chances. That’s as attacking as it can be, pretty much!

16:35 , Jonathan Gorrie

VAR drama

16:34 , Jonathan Gorrie

72:00 - Douglas Luiz sent off!

VAR, however, overturn the decision and the Brazilian is shown a yellow.

The dream team

16:26 , Jonathan Gorrie

63:00 - Eze, Olise and Zaha are combining well and it’s a statement of intent from Vieira to have them all on the pitch.

That final touch, however, is missing.

Here he comes!

16:19 , Jonathan Gorrie

CHANCE FOR PALACE

16:19 , Jonathan Gorrie

58:00 - Gallagher breaks lines and plays a ball into the box from the byline.

Defensive mix-up sees Villa make a mess but no one there from a Palace perspective to tap in.

Milivojević mess

16:16 , Jonathan Gorrie

54:00 - Terrible from Milivojević. He wastes the resulting free-kick and then, when Villa counter, he fouls Watkins just outside of the Palace box.

Not a good few seconds.

Strange decision

16:14 , Jonathan Gorrie

52:00 - Nakamba booked for a foul on Zaha in the Villa

Gallagher, however, looked in. Strange decision from the ref to pull the play back so early.

Olise x Zaha

16:12 , Jonathan Gorrie

51:00 - Olise and Zaha combine well but Martinez is able to catch the latter’s cross with relative ease.

This man needs to get on the ball more often

16:11 , Jonathan Gorrie

16:09 , Jonathan Gorrie

48:00 - Mitchell tries to find Zaha, who ran in behind the Villa defence.

It doesn’t come to much but, the point is, it’s already more expansive from the home side in the second-half.

Palace starting well

16:07 , Jonathan Gorrie

47:00 - Palace have started well.

Zaha is running at both Cash and McGinn, something we barely saw in the first-half.

You feel they need a chance early or risk the game fizzling out.

Promising omens for Palace

16:06 , Jonathan Gorrie

46:00 - It’s worth remembering Villa have only kept one clean sheet in 12 away games.

Surely, Palace will get a chance?

Back underway!

16:04 , Jonathan Gorrie

Second-half begins at Selhurst Park.

Missing McArthur?

15:55 , Jonathan Gorrie

McGinn is having the run of the place in midfield today and Palace lack the kind of energy McArthur has in abundance.

How the rest of the 3pms are going

15:50 , Jonathan Gorrie

Half-time!

15:50 , Jonathan Gorrie

45:00 - One goal in it and Palace, to their credit, did start to improve towards the end of the first-half.

Good work Benteke

15:44 , Jonathan Gorrie

43:00 - Brilliant work from Christian Benteke, who dazzles a raft of Villa defenders with his footwork before Mings can finally get a touch to stop him from shooting in a good position in the box.

First sign of Olise

15:42 , Jonathan Gorrie

40:00 - Promising run from Olise who, otherwise, hasn’t really had much of the ball.

Doesn’t quite pay off but you can see the talent the former Reading youngster boasts.

15:40 , Jonathan Gorrie

McGinn dangerous

15:37 , Jonathan Gorrie

36:00 - Kouyate clears McGinn out and the Villa midfielder isn’t happy about it.

Largely, he’s been their biggest threat.

Entertaining game

15:34 , Jonathan Gorrie

34:00 - Palace really aren’t afraid to step up under Vieira, are they?

On the front-foot, Guehi manages to clear up a through ball and tries to launch a counter.

Very fun game so far

Double booking

15:31 , Jonathan Gorrie

29:00 - Zaha and Cash both booked after pushing each other.

Has been lively so far.

CHANCE FOR VILLA

15:28 , Jonathan Gorrie

27:00 - McGinn goes close with a curling shot.

Would have been quite some goal and, frankly, the Villa midfielder gets in far too easily.

Benteke half-chance

15:25 , Jonathan Gorrie

24:00 - Benteke heads over after good work from Gallagher finds him in the box.

Not good enough from Palace

15:23 , Jonathan Gorrie

22:00 - Difficult for Palace to find a way through now, albeit with most of the game still to play.

Not good enough from Gallagher when trying to close Targett down.

GOAL: Crystal Palace 0-1 Aston Villa | Matt Targett ‘15

15:19 , Jonathan Gorrie

15:00 - Targett scores after a shot from the second-phase of a corner.

More set-piece problems for Palace.

15:16 , Jonathan Gorrie

15:00 - Milivojevic lucky not to be booked for a foul on Bailey.

Should really have been booked.

CHANCE FOR PALACE

15:12 , Jonathan Gorrie

12:00 - Driven shot from Zaha on the edge of the box goes just wide.

Palace improving

15:08 , Jonathan Gorrie

07:00 - Brilliant cross Gallagher and Tyrone Mings head out of danger for a corner.

Villa positive

15:07 , Jonathan Gorrie

06:00 - Gerrard will be the happier of the two managers.

Very positive start from his team, who have just seen an attack fade out and Palace need to start taking the sting out of the game.

Villa free-kick

15:06 , Jonathan Gorrie

03:00 - Aston Villa waste a free-kick in a good position as Bailey fails to beat the wall.

Disjointed so far

15:04 , Jonathan Gorrie

03:00 - Not the most controlled opening with bot teams struggling to keep a hold of the ball.

Kick-off!

15:00 , Jonathan Gorrie

We’re underway at Selhurst Park.

Steve Parish reacts to the land-led review

14:26 , Jonathan Gorrie

Steve Parish has warned that plans to introduce an independent regulator to the English game risk having a negative impact on the sport.

Tracey Crouch’s fan-led review was published earlier this week, and called for parliament to support the creation of a new regulatory body, among a number of other recommendations.

Gary Neville has been one of those outspoken in his support for the proposals, which would see a regulator deal with the game’s finances, club ownership and corporate governance.

The move would weaken the powers of the Premier League and other leagues, and the Football Association to govern the game, and it is hoped would prevent teams attempting to set up breakaway leagues such as the European Super League.

Crystal Palace chairman Parish is insistent that Crouch’s proposals are not the way to improve the situation.

Exciting times for the next generation at Palace

Two changes for Palace

14:12 , Jonathan Gorrie

James Tomkins in for Joachim Andersen while Michael Olise gets his seconds Premier League start today.

This is an exciting new Palace and it will be fascinating to see how the youngster fits in.

Early team news

13:45 , Marc Mayo

James McArthur could be out for a while after tearing a muscle against Wolves a fortnight ago though Odsonne Edouard’s return to the squad against Burnley could see him involved.

Nathan Ferguson is still out but could soon be in contention for a first-term berth at last.

Evening Standard prediction

13:43 , Marc Mayo

With the home side proving the most serial drawers in the Premier League so far and Gerrard surely not wanting to risk a loss so early into his tenure, it’s tough to split them.

1-1 draw.

Can I watch the game live on TV in the UK?

13:41 , Marc Mayo

With the game kicking off at 3pm GMT, fans will be unable to watch live because of the blackout at the time in English football.

Highlights, however, will be available on Match of the Day which broadcasts at 10.30pm GMT on Saturday night.

Good afternoon!
