Hello and welcome to live coverage of Crystal Palace v Southampton.

Lemina can't chase down a pass to the left hand corner of the pitch, and a nicely worked move from Southampton comes to an end

Long is the player down with noggin problems now, after McArthur sticks his forearm into his mush, trying to shield the ball innocently enough. He's alright.

Hoedt finds Tadic with a magnificent 'diag', but his low ball into the box isn't near any striker, and the danger passes.

Cabaye floats in a pass for Benteke in the box. But it's too high, and a touch behind him, so it drifts out of play for a goal kick.

Schlupp hits it long for Puncheon to chase down the left, but it's overhit.

Ward is down, clutching his head after an awkward landing after a tussle with Redmond. He's alright to continue.

Cedric's cross from the right wing is headed up and away by Dann. Loftus-Cheek wins the second ball, heading it on again, and Romeu is penalised for jumping into him.

Cabaye gets a booking for jumping onto Lemina's toes.

Lemina heads away Palace's corner Southampton counter down the right, but the move loses momentum and Palace drop back.

Another chance for Loftus-Cheek. He rides two challenges, but Bertrand recovers well to stick out a leg and deflect his shot wide for a corner.

Loftus-Cheek brings the ball from midfield after a Benteke lay-off. He takes a few touches and shoots early, 30 yards out, fizzing just wide.

Ward strains to reach a pass from Townsend, but his cross is just a fraction too high. Palace keep hold of the ball.

Long looks to be behind the offside trap and free to cut in and take on the 'keeper, but Redmond had delayed his pass a touch too long, and he's offside.

Redmond and Bertrand are agitated over what appears to be a throw-in that's awarded against them, but the referees confirms they are correct. PANIC OVER.

Palace are playing like the away side. Or another way of putting it: It's like watching England v Iceland.

Redmond makes space for a shot from about 30 yards, and while it stings the hands of Hennessey, it's too central to be threatening.

Lemina's quick feet in midfield makes room about 35 yards out, and he blasts an effort wide instead of finding Cedric and Tadic out to his right.

Loftus-Cheek concedes a foul high up the pitch, interrupting that momentum Palace had been building up.

Townsend lays the ball off to Loftus-Cheek, finding the touchline and crossing it for Benteke's run to the six-yard box. He shoots, only a few yards out, but Forster pulls off a vital save.

Hennessey hoiks a clearance away from goal, which means it's straight back to the Southampton defence.

Southampton keep the ball around the defence, with Palace not pressing that high up the pitch.
