Spurs stay in fourth spot as Juan Foyth goal beats Palace

The domination of the Premier League's elite teams continued at Selhurst Park as Tottenham beat Crystal Palace 1-0.

Spurs remain fourth but they have moved level on points with Liverpool and Chelsea. They were made to work hard for the victory which was achieved through young defender Juan Foyth's second-half header.

There were a number of important matches towards the foot of the table but Huddersfield and Cardiff remain in the bottom three despite gaining positive home results.

Cardiff came from behind to beat ten-man Brighton 2-1 with a last-gasp Sol Bamba goal.

Callum Paterson cancelled out Lewis Dunk's opener for Albion before the game changed on 34 minutes when Brighton midfielder Dale Stephens was shown a red card. Chris Hughton's side still looked like holding on until Bamba brought the house down with the winner.

Huddersfield were pegged back in a 1-1 draw with West Ham. Alex Pritchard opened the scoring and Felipe Anderson equalised for the Hammers.

There were also draws at St Mary's between Southampton and Watford and at the King Power Stadium on an emotional afternoon for Leicester, who paid tribute to owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha throughout the goalless stalemate with Burnley, in the first match at the stadium since the tragic helicopter crash.

Newcastle made it successive Premier League victories with a 2-1 triumph over Bournemouth. All the action came in the first half with Salomon Rondon scoring twice for the Magpies and Jefferson Lerma on target for the visitors.

The big FA Cup first-round shock came at Huish Park as National League North outfit Stockport beat Sky Bet League Two Yeovil 3-1.
