Crystal Palace hopes a late midweek wondergoal can kickstart its slumping season when Newcastle United visits Selhurst Park on Saturday.

The Magpies are playing without Bruno Guimaraes, a huge loss that could last a week or several — we don’t know yet — but will feel they still have enough to overwork Palace’s midfield. So far, USMNT back Chris Richards has done alright and is in the thick of a big opportunity. James’ Park on Tuesday, with the second leg on Saturday.

He eased Edouard out of the way and then powered a header just wide. He nailed a rising shot across goal, but Pope flew to his right and stretched to tip it over the bar. At the other end Isak twists away from Guehi on the left side of the area, but Guehi stretches to make a fine tackle.
