Crystal Palace 1-2 Arsenal
Palace hate playing Arsenal. The Gunners are now unbeaten in 11 matches against the Eagles, racking up eight wins in the process. Olivier Giroud moved onto 50 goals for Arsenal when he smashed home a rebound on the stroke of half time at Selhurst Park.
Hull City 2-1 Queens Park Rangers
QPR midfielder Joey Barton broke his run of picking up yellow cards in seven consecutive games by getting a straight red at Hull – the ninth dismissal of his career. Dame N’Doye was Hull’s hero. He has now scored two goals and provided one assist in two Premier League matches.
