    It's brilliant and the best bit is the touch at the start. And we've seen it all afternoon with players backing off because they just don't know when to press.

    Eberechi Eze has options. He has Wilfried Zaha and Christian Benteke to pass to. In the end, he just runs forward and grabs his goal.

    Palace are on course for a clean sheet, three points and to confirm their safety mathematically.

    Game over.

    It's a deflected finish again but Eberechi Eze goes on a brilliant solo run down the left.

    He cuts inside, glides past one, two, then three players before his tame shot bobbles into the corner following a heavy touch from John Fleck.

    Crucial touch from John Fleck, who tracks back to poke away Christian Benteke's through ball to Jordan Ayew. He'd have been in!

    Oliver Norwood takes it but he fires it over the bar.

    Nice play from debutant Daniel Jebbison. He invites Eberechi Eze in with his first touch then spins him quickly and wins a foul just outside the Palace box.

    Jordan Ayew has had a few chances since coming on. He curls it around the defender and towards the top right corner but Aaron Ramsdale is equal to it.

    Wilfried Zaha and Tyrick Mitchell battle to win the ball on the left for Palace.

    Zaha carries it into the box but Kean Bryan comes across to hoof it away before he shoots.

    It's an incredible block, not sure the defender knew too much about it.

    The ball across was just asking to be buried. Ayew had too much time.

    Sheffield United try to break. David McGoldrick lifts it through to Daniel Jebbison but he can't get there ahead of Vicente Guaita.

    Wilfried Zaha wriggles away from a few challenges on the left. Tyrick Mitchell fires it in but Kean Bryan gets it away.

    It comes back to Mitchell, he slips in Zaha and he cuts it back for Jordan Ayew.

    He should score but he smacks it straight into the back of a diving defender. What a chance!

    Ooof. Andros Townsend tries a curler from the right. Not too far away!

    Man City v Chelsea (17:30 BST)

    Pep Guardiola continues to cause fantasy football managers to tear their hair out in frustration, making nine changes from the Man City side that beat PSG to reach the final of the Champions League on Tuesday.

    The only survivors from the side are goalkeeper Edersen and defender Ruben Dias.

    In come defenders Aymeric Laporte, Nathan Ake, Benjamin Mendy and Joao Cancelo. Three at the back? Or Cancelo in midfield?

    Rodrigo starts in front of them, with Ferran Torres, Raheem Sterling, Gabriel Jesus and Sergio Aguero the attacking threat.

    Man City: Ederson, Ake, Dias, Laporte, Joao Cancelo, Rodri, Mendy, Torres, Aguero, Sterling, Gabriel Jesus.

    Subs: Walker, Gundogan, Zinchenko, Steffen, Bernardo Silva, Fernandinho, Mahrez, Foden, Garcia.

    Just the five changes for Chelsea from the side that beat Real Madrid on Wednesday.

    Billy Gilmour comes into midfield, full-backs Reece James and Marcos Alonso start and forwards Hakim Ziyech and Christian Pulisic are recalled.

    The players dropping out are Thiago Silva, Bern Chilwell, Jorginho, Mason Mount and Kai Havertz.

    Anyone think these resemble anything close to the teams that will start the Champions League final?!

    Chelsea: Mendy, Azpilicueta, Christensen, Rudiger, Kante, James, Ziyech, Gilmour, Alonso, Pulisic, Werner.

    Subs: Arrizabalaga, Jorginho, Abraham, Zouma, Giroud, Hudson-Odoi, Havertz, Emerson Palmieri, Livramento.

    Wilfried Zaha manages to keep the ball on the left. He finds Jairo Riedewald inside and he moves it on to Eberechi Eze.

    Riedewald makes the overlapping run on the right but Eze ignores him, instead opting to poke it through to Christian Benteke but there's too many bodies in the way.
