Newcastle United vs Crystal Palace LIVE (ChronicleLive)

All the latest from St James' Park as Eddie Howe's Magpies take on Patrick Vieira's Eagles in the Premier League.

For all of the progress made, nothing has been achieved yet and while there are still points to play for, we will take nothing for granted. Great work from Joelinton and Bruno on the edge of the box. The players deserve huge credit for the improvement they have shown in recent months, the Newcastle United head coach wrote. Saint-Maximin gets the ball on the right flank and proceeds to do about 10 stepovers in a row. He really is just fearless, the Newcastle United captain wrote in his programme notes. Newcastle's dramatic 2-1 win over Leicester on Sunday backed up a 1-0 win over Wolves and United have lost only once at home under Eddie Howe in the Premier League - and that was to Manchester City. Lee Ryder and Ciaran Kelly are at the ground today to bring you all the latest as it happens. The confidence he has to receive the ball in any area of the pitch shows a lot of courage and then there's his work ethic as well. Palace's first real half-chance of the game. From the first day we arrived at the club, they have shown a desire to learn and improve, and a spirit and togetherness which has kept everyone united in more difficult moments. Didn't even beat a man! Newcastle have the first chance of the game.

Whilst Crystal Palace’s season is maybe in danger of now fading away, for everybody at Newcastle United it is very definitely a case of enjoying every match still. Michael Owen forecasts a 1-0 win for Newcastle tonight and it isn’t a bad shout actually, at least based on history, as after beating Palace 3-2 at St James Park in the 1994/95 Premier League season, the other four NUFC wins have all been by that 1-0 scoreline. With a trip to bottom club Norwich on Saturday, three points tonight would be massive for Newcastle United pushing on and ending the season in a certain amount of style.

“Here, with the new manager, we want to press high and he wants to win the ball higher, and I think that suits us more – and that means if we win the ball higher we are closer to the goal, as well. The defender is confident that Newcastle are on the way to becoming one of the biggest clubs going forward. He claimed that while Newcastle were more defensive under their previous managers, Howe has made them more attacking and proactive and it suits the current squad of players.

Today's evening headlines include Bruno Guimaraes comments, Michael Owen's praise for Eddie Howe and fighting talk from Emil Krafth.

"It was incredible, when you score the last-minute goal, I can't describe the feeling. Emil Krafth has declared Newcastle’s work is far from over despite having a 12-point cushion on the bottom three. Five home wins in a row, St James’ is becoming a fortress!" Jonjo Shelvey is currently operating in the ‘quarterback’ position for United, meaning Guimaraes has freedom to get further forward. I believe I still have a lot to evolve in that sense, but I've been scoring my goals.” Bruno Guimaraes believes the system Eddie Howe plays at Newcastle allows him to play his best football.

And he showed a glimpse of why that is the case in the recent game against Leicester City by scoring a brace, including a 95th minute winner, for the Magpies.

The way that Newcastle United have been playing since the turn of the year, they already look like a top 8 team. According to stats from Transfermarkt, he has scored 10 goals and provided 6 assists this season. The club are expected to make further additions to their squad over the coming transfer windows though and now that it looks like they have managed to avoid relegation, expect to see The Magpies splash out in the summer transfer window.

Almiron won it, and after steadying himself on the right of the area, the forward curled a magnificent left-footed strike beyond Guaita and into the top corner. Under Steve Bruce, Newcastle’s players had seemed afraid of being in possession, hence their desire to sit back and invite the opposition on to them before looking to break. Newcastle’s home has certainly become a fortress in the last few months, with last night’s victory meaning Howe’s side have not dropped a point on home turf since the January draw with Watford that seemed likely to signal a protracted battle against relegation. The move for the opener began with Emil Krafth finding Guimaraes from a throw-in. It was the Paraguayan’s first goal of the season, and a fitting reward for an effervescent attacking display that saw Almiron steal the limelight from his continental counterparts. Perhaps the Wor Flags group will have to invest in a Paraguayan flag to go along with the Brazilian ones that currently flutter around St James’ Park.

Last night the ‘celebration police’ were out in force on Twitter and the like, as random journalists, pundits, rival fans queued up to mock Newcastle United supporters for enjoying themselves after their team won a game of football. However, Newcastle United still came away with their spirits raised overall, because this performance was further proof that Eddie Howe was slowly but surely breathing life unto Newcastle United, getting the vital organs working again, after having flatlined under Mike Ashley and Steve Bruce. Yes, Newcastle United haven’t won the Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup….anything, thanks for reminding us (yawn yawn) BUT we do know how to enjoy ourselves.

But to do that, I have to continue working hard as I have been doing, and I hope to achieve all my dreams." It feels like he knows that is an attainable goal now, even if he is slightly teetering around what is clearly an aim in his mind, but to even be talking about the prospect of a call-up feels like a decent barometer of change. If I continue doing that, it could happen, I could catch the attention of the national team." "Ever since he arrived here at Newcastle he's helped me a lot, shown great faith in me – a lot of support day-to-day, and that's been really important for me. I want to continue this great relationship with the Newcastle fans." "It would be the result and fruit of my hard work if it were to happen. "If I were to continue playing consistently this is something that could happen. "I would be really happy if it were to happen," he says. I hope to continue to develop and evolve. There is a degree of credit due to Joelinton for trying something different, for using a new process, and it seems to have contributed to his rise. After being introduced by one of his agents, he now works with São Paulo-based analyst Diego Viera. "It was something new for me, and it was just at the right time for me here if you think about the context," he explains in Portuguese, through an interpreter.
