Jonjo Shelvey delivers a wicked free-kick from the right that eludes all including Joselu, who looks aggrieved about something.

Was he tugged back?

Joselu comes on for Salomon Rondon.

Injury?

We are moments from the restart.

Today's "I'll have a word with the referee before the restart" is Kenedy.

A prize is winging its way to you, Kenedy.

Luka Milivojevic's curling free-kick against the post in the closest we've come to a goal.

It's been entertaining, and full of set-pieces for you set-piece fans.

Newcastle now have a free-kick which is launched to the edge of the Palace area, but the ball is headed clear.

Seconds remaining.

Newcastle are playing a little bit off keep-ball before half-time - although they do have a throw in the Palace half.

A big build up usually ends in an anti-climax - Milivojevic's effort bounces off the head of Jamaal Lascelles in the wall.

Palace now have a free-kick about two yards to the left of centre and 25 yards out - you can guess who's going to take this one.

Luka Milivojevic takes the free-kick from the left. The ball is swung in, and misses pretty much everybody before coming off the far post.

Unlucky Palace and what a let-off for the Magpies.

Wilfried Zaha skins DeAndre Yedlin who hauls him down.

Yellow. Not much debate from the USA player.

What a lovely move by Palace in a tight situation on the left!

Sadly for them Shelvey nicks the ball away as Patrick van Aanholt was looking to tiptoe into the area.

Once again Martin "Safe Hands" Dubravka plucks Luka Milivojevic's drifter out of the air.

At the other end, Kenedy finds himself in a good position wide left but his low delivery into the area is as tame as a house-bred chinchilla.

Newcastle win two corners in fairly quick succession but fail to trouble the Palace defence with either.

Last season, set-pieces were their big strength but captain Jamaal Lascelles has yet to find his range today.

Palace now have a free-kick wide left and about 40 yards out.

DeAndre Yedlin catches the fleet-footed Patrick van Aanholt but it happened on the edge of the area.

Good call Andre Marriner.

Luka Milivojevic is over the ball once more, but his curling free-kick is straight into the hands of Martin Dubravka.

Captain Jamaal Lascelles steams towards the near post but his glancing header has too much glance on it.

Newcastle still have the ball though.

Newcastle now have a corner.

What a first 20 minutes to this match.

And now it's another corner for Palace - this one is cleared initially before Cheikhou Kouyate launches a sidefooter that is saved low by Martin Dubravka.

The Slovak keeper looks to be a good purchase for the Magpies.

Martin Dubravka dives to his left to palm away the Palace skipper's low curling effort that was looking to sneak inside his far post.

Palace have another free-kick now - this time wide right.

Jordan Ayew - up top in place of the injured Christian Benteke - produces a glancing header at the near post that lacks direction.

Moments later, Wilfried Zaha wins a free-kick after meeting the wall that is Mohamed Diame.

Luka Milivojevic over it.

Cheikhou Kouyate manages to get an important head to Jonjo Shelvey's delivery.

Now Palace have a corner following a swift counter.

See-saw.
