Brillant two ways outing

Hughes registered four shots (zero on goal) in Sunday's 2-0 loss versus Newcastle United.
ANALYSIS
Hughes was Palace's most consistent presence in midfield and twice went close to giving them the lead. He worked a neat one-two with Yeremy Pino and sent a low effort just wide late in the first half. In stoppage time before the break, he again arrived from deep and prodded narrowly wide. Hughes attempted four shots, a season high for the midfielder after contributing to 10 shots across 16 games prior to that outing. Hughes was also brilliant in defense, contributing to season highs with five tackles and two interceptions. The midfielder has now started the last four games for the Eagles, and that outing will likely confirm him in that role moving forward.

Hopeful not to miss time

Hughes is hoping to not miss Sunday's match against Newcastle after going down with an injury in Thursday's match against Fulham, according to manager Olivier Glasner. "Let's see. He just felt fatigue everywhere around the hip and once it was the hamstring, then it was the adductor, then it was the thigh. We have to assess him further, but of course we hope that we won't miss him in the next game, because I think nobody will return for the Newcastle game and we need him."
