Jermain Defoe's two goals have secured us a valuable point away to Palace.
A good result, and a wonder goal well worth watching.
A valiant effort ahead of Tuesday's game.
Thank you for following, and we'll see you on Tuesday!
90: LATE DRAMA!
Benteke's penalty is REALLY poor, but Begovic guesses the right way to deny him to his right!
SAVEDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!
BEGOVIC SAVESSSSS ITT!
PENALTY to Palace.
Daniels on Zaha.
Cherries are furious.
90: Injury time...
FIVE minutes. We're defending for the point at the minute, but you never know!
A big five ahead...
88: Sub for us...
Weeman comes off after an industrious shift.
Benik comes on to replace him.
That means King will go wide, Afobe through the middle.
86: Save!
Palace take a quick free-kick, Loftus-Cheek cuts inside and it's a low one at the near which Begovic gets a strong hand to. Good save!
85: into the final five...
Still a nervy feel about it for both teams.
We look more threatening on the break, hopefully we can nick it!
80: Subs for both...
Bakary Sako comes on for Andros Townsend, while Wilson is coming on for us as we speak.
He'll replace the two-goal JD.
78: Sitter for Scott Dann...
Should be 3-2.
Benteke has nodded on a set-play brilliantly and Dann is completely free at the back post, bt he skies it from four yards.
PHEW.
It's become a little scrappy...
67: A booking for Cook...
Zaha beat him and he synically took him down.
Zaha then proceeded to act extremely aggressively and get in Cook's face, earning himself a booking too.
66: Ibe shoots!
... It's a good effort! He's 25-yards out and it's swerving but Speroni parries it out!
We're battling away...
62: Sub for us...
Stanislas makes way for Ibe.
Ibe turned 22 yesterday, hopefully a birthday to celebrate!
61: Chance for Palace!
Zaha and owsend combine and the latter squares for the onrushing Cabaye.
He strikes but Cookie makes a GREAT block!
58: HUGE CHANCE!
Stanislas gets the ball on the right and drills an impeccable pass into the middle, Defoe is unmarked and steaming in, but it goes wide!
Big, big chance!!
57: Chance!
Stanislas gets it on the edge and has time.
He opens hi body up and curls one, but it just doesn't whip and it's straight at Speroni.
Unlucky, good opening!
55: Save!
Palace on top as it stands.
Cabaye is denied by Begovic with a low stop before he had another shot, which Daniels made a terrific block from.
The hosts having the better of it.
47: Chance!
King does well! He rides a few challenges and squares to Surman on the edge, but he curls the ball narrowly over!
Good start to the half.
45: We're back underway...
After a lovely sandwich in the press room (for just me of course,) we're back underway.
All the talk was about Jermain's simply unbelievable goal just before the whistle.
Let's hope the lads can thrive off that, come on!
HALF TIME
What a frantic end to the half!
Two goals in five minutes for Palace and then an absolutely outrageous Defoe volley means we're level at the break.
What a game!
45: THAT IS SPECIAL!
A long ball forward from Lewis Cook is into towards Jermain Defoe.
At an angle in the box, he unbelievably takes it first time and volleys a lob past Speroni.
It's simply sensational, honestly, no-one in the ground can quite believe he scored it.
Sensational, outrageous, WHAT A GOAL!
WHAT A GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!
OH MY WORD!
THAT IS GOAL OF THE MONTH HANDS DOWN!!!!
JERMAIN DEFOE!!!!!!
45: Not the ideal end to the half...
Four games against us, four for Scott Dann.
He was free at the back post to meet Cabaye's low cross and divert it in.
A turnaround from the hosts which didn't look too likely five minutes earlier.
GOAL for Palace.
Scott Dann - AGAIN.
2-1 down.
GOAL for Palace.
Miloljevic equalises. High penalty in the top right.
Begovic guessed the right way but it was a good penalty to be fair.
The initial incident is one to be discussed on Match of the Day for sure.
39: PENALTY TO PALACE.
Zaha goes in and tries to round Begovic, but the referee adjudges the 'keeper caught him!
Not entirely sure, penalty either way...
Weeman is enjoying himself down the left...
37: Chance!!!
Great play by Junior, he threads in Franno in the area on the right and he pulls it across to Defoe who takes a touch in the box, beats his man, but it's just too heavy and Speroni smother before he can pull the trigger!
A great move - could be 2-0!
31: Danger...
Zaha gets down the left and crosses to the back post for Benteke.
He superbly nods it down to the penalty spot but no Palace player is there to capitalise and Francis hooks clear.
Miloljovic has also been booked for scything down Weeman.
30: First yellow...
King skins Tomkins and iheading towards goal... Tomkins deliberately barges him and it's a blatant yellow.
Good play from Kingy!
1-0 up, it's going well so far!
23: Sub for Palace...
Scott Dann - the goal machine against us - comes on for the injured Mamadou Sahko.
Dann has scored in his last three Premier League games against us...
22: What a chance!!!
Defoe gets in in the area at an angle, but has the whole corner to aim for - he tries a left-footed effort but Tomkins comes out of nowhere to make a block!
A big opening!
16: Scramble!
A corner comes in, Surman is on the line, it's cleared against Sahko and it flies narrowly wide!
Palace look threatening from set plays.
15: Save!
We're about to break and Surman's pass hits the referee and falls kindly for Palace.
Zaha finds Benteke in the area and is in on goal but Begovic does really well to touch it out.
Top save!
Lovely stuff!
11: That is some set play!!!
What a corner routine!
Surman took a short one to Stanislas, who returned it to Surman.
He whipped a beautiful low ball and Defoe was always going to score in the middle with a lovely low finish.
One off the training ground - we're 1-0 up!!
GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!
DEFOEEEEEE!
WE'RE 1-0 UP!!!
07: Chance for Defoe!
Francis bombs on the right flank and sends in a high cross.
Defoe is in acres and the cross is heading away from goal, but he manages to get a powerful header in from ten-yards which Speroni has to stop.
A lively start here at Selhurst Park!
06: Another Palace chance...
Sharp feet from Zaha, he skins Cook and crosses for Benteke.
The big Belgian can't guide it goalwards in the six-yard box, nodding it well over.
Good chance.
05: Just over!
After some initially good defending, the ball bounced to Schlupp on the edge of the box.
He smashes an effort which whizzes narrowly over. Quite close, that.
03: Decent opening...
For Palace.
Townsend got free down the right-hand side and whipped in a dangerous ball which Franno had to clear at the back post.
First action of any note here.
01: We're underway!
Kingy takes kick-off and we're underway!
The lads will be attacking away from the travelling fans who are pitchside on the far side.
The teams are out!
The usual pre-match handshakes are underway as we edge ever closer to kick-off.
We're playing in our green and black third kit today, Palace in their usual red and blue home kit.
We're unbeaten in the green and black... Hopefully that run continues this afternoon!

Lots going on, follow the big game now!
Kick-off approaches...
Both teams make their way to the tunnel in front of a packed house here.
Should be a good one!
Young and old...
We've got managers in both dugouts at very different points in their career.
There are 30 years and 113 days between Roy Hodgson - the oldest manager in the Premier League - and Eddie Howe, the youngest.
The media box...
Apart from the big two poles in the middle, it's a good view!
The players' warm-up intensifies with a passing drill in front of us on a bitterly cold afternoon in London.
The head to head record...
.... points towards a positive result!
There hasn't been a single home victory in the four Premier League games that have been played between us and Palace.
Palace are also winless in three home games against us, since 1988.
One to watch...
Has to be Wilfried Zaha.
Simply because he always is a handful against us!
25-year-old Zaha is their top scorer this season too, finding the net three times and playing in a more advanced role as a striker.
Some pre-match reading...
The team...
So the boss makes just one change to the XI, an enforced one with Adam Smith suspended.
Franno comes in at right-back with Steve Cook returning at the heart of the defence.
TEAM: Begovic; Francis, S Cook, Ake, Daniels; Stanislas, L Cook, Surman, Fraser; King; Defoe.

TEAM: Begovic; Francis, S Cook, Ake, Daniels; Stanislas, L Cook, Surman, Fraser; King; Defoe.
One change...
Nathan Ake speaks...
Let's get hyped!!
What's happening with the visitors?
Palace are unbeaten in their last four Premier League outings, drawing three and winning one of those fixtures.
Roy Hodgson's side sit three points off safety, while we are five points of Palace heading into the game.
They could be boosted by the return of Yohan Cabaye, James McArthur and Scott Dann, while Joel Ward is a doubt.
30 minutes until team news...
The manager revealed that there were no new absentees for the game.
The long term players, Tyrone Mings and Brad Smith, remain out while Adam Smith is suspended.
That means that Simon Francis could return to the right-back berth with Steve Cook back in at centre-back.
All will be revealed at 2pm!
Did you know?
He started against Southampton last week, could Jermain Defoe start again?
Here's a fact for you... He's scored seven Premier League goals against Palace, the only player who has scored more than five times against them!
Another positive away day?
Well, it looks likely according to the form book!
We're unbeaten in three away league matches, winning two of them.
On top of that, the team have kept back-to-back away clean sheets in the league.
A good omen perhaps!?
Welcome to London!
We've arrived at Selhurst Park ahead of another big Premier League game for AFC Bournemouth.
The scene is set in Croydon and we'll bring you all the updates across our channels, with live commentary, text updates and social media all covered.
Stay tuned for all the updates!
