Crystal Palace and West Ham United played out a goalless 0-0 draw at Selhurst Park on Monday, 20 April 2026, in a Premier League fixture that will be remembered primarily for its external significance — the result confirmed Wolverhampton Wanderers‘ relegation to the EFL Championship, as the Midlands club’s position was made mathematically permanent by the other results around them on the same evening. West Ham secured a massive point in their own relegation battle that lifted them two points clear of Tottenham Hotspur in the standings, while Crystal Palace — who have a game in hand on some rivals — moved within five points of Brentford’s Conference League play-off position.
The match itself was a competitive and well-organised encounter that produced goalkeeping highlights rather than genuine attacking quality. Eagles winger Brennan Johnson, a player with connections to Tottenham Hotspur and therefore with a personal stake in the survival picture — a battle also involving Everton — had a chance to boost his former side’s survival hopes with a first-half free header but missed, as ESPN noted in their match analysis. Dean Henderson produced a significant save to deny Kostas Mavropanos before the break, reflecting West Ham’s own attacking intent despite their defensive first priority.
The draw lifted the Hammers two points clear of Tottenham, who drew 2-2 with Brighton the previous day in a week that also saw Arsenal drop crucial points, while Crystal Palace’s European ambitions were kept alive in a league dominated by leaders like Liverpool and Manchester City. Adam Wharton remained sidelined for Palace, having been forced off the previous week against Fiorentina in the Conference League. Watch highlights on AllSportsZone.
