Watford suffered a late defeat to Crystal Palace last night thanks to a dramatic late turnaround.

Bakary Sako and James McArthur scored late goals for Palace to turn a potential 1-0 loss into a 2-1 win.

The defeat lifted Palace out of the relegation zone for the first time this season, and put West Brom into it.

West Brom play tonight against Liverpool, a game they are not expected to get anything out of against the in-form Reds.

Palace’s victory delighted fans of West Brom’s rivals Wolves, who sit flying high at the top of the Championship, and could take the Baggies’ place if they are relegated.

The fact that ex-Wolves winger Sako scored the goals made it even sweeter.

West Brom will hope their spell in the relegation zone is just temporary, but it will be tough to rise out of it tonight when they take on Liverpool.

Then at the weekend they host Manchester United, before facing Stoke City on Boxing Day.
