Eberechi Eze scored one goal and set up another as Crystal Palace confirmed their Premier League status for another season in a 2-0 victory at Sheffield United.
Christian Benteke marked his 100th PL start with a goal after only 66 seconds as his shot from Eze's through-ball deflected in.
Palace largely controlled play and were denied a second when Aaron Ramsdale brilliantly kept out Benteke’s header just before half-time.
Sheff Utd improved in the second half and 17-year-old striker Daniel Jebbison nearly had a dream debut as he headed over Ben Osborn’s cross.
Eze capped the win late on with a solo run from inside his own half before his deflected shot beat Ramsdale.
A first win in five matches lifts Palace to 13th with 41 points, 14 above the relegation zone.
Sheff Utd remain bottom on 17 points.
