Manchester City's hopes of retaining their title suffered another huge blow with defeat at Selhurst Park.
Glenn Murray put Crystal Palace ahead with a tap-in from close range before Jason Puncheon fired in a brilliant free-kick from the edge of the box.
Yaya Toure's fierce strike pulled a goal back for fourth-placed City but Palace held on to move up to 11th.
City are nine points behind Chelsea and also below Arsenal and Manchester United, who they play on Sunday.But City go into Sunday's derby at Old Trafford having won just 18 points from their past 12 games - eight fewer than their fierce rivals.
