Crystal Palace vs AFC Bournemouth LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from Selhurst Park
Follow live coverage as Crystal Palace face AFC Bournemouth today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.
Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:
Crystal Palace vs AFC Bournemouth
It ends 0-0 between Crystal Palace and Bournemouth for the second time in Premier League action this season as the ten-men Eagles held on for a point at Selhurst Park. On the back of conceding ten goals in their last two Premier League games, Glasner's backline stood firm, as they played the second-half with ten players. Richards' dismissal just before the break changed the complexion of the contest as Bournemouth failed to capitalise. No big chances created and a home xG of 0.17 - compared to Bournemouth's 0.67 - tells the tale of a clash which simply failed to ignite.
