Forest have picked up just one win in their last five Premier League games and their hopes of Champions League football next season has hit a stumbling block. They are far from out, though. After Eberechi Eze's penalty, Forest showed spirit and Murillo's clever finish earned what could prove to be a vital point.

LONDON — Nottingham Forest drew with Crystal Palace 1-1 in the Premier League on Monday and saw its Champions League hopes fade. Nuno Espírito Santo’s men have spent most of the year in the league top three but a run of one win in four has dropped them behind Chelsea, Newcastle and a resurgent Manchester City.

Newcastle have 62 before Sunday's match vs Brighton, while Man City have played and have 64.Palace have not won in four Premier League outings but drew their last two prior to last week's FA Cup semifinal triumph over Aston Villa at Wembley Stadium.
