Goalless after the opening 45 minutes at Selhurst Park in tonight's Premier League fixture.

Neither side was able to find a breakthrough during the first half.

A quiet match so far has seen just two shots on target between the two sides.

The most noteworthy highlight saw Anthony Elanga denied by Dean Henderson after a flowing counter-attack.

It came just moments after Chris Wood had gone down in the area under contact from Daniel Munoz.

Despite a VAR review, the officials decided the striker had gone down too easily and no penalty was awarded.

Meanwhile, Callum Hudson-Odoi has been spotted in the away end.

The Forest winger misses out with a hamstring injury but is watching on with the travelling supporters.

Flamengo are interested in signing Joao Felix ahead of the Club World Cup, talkSPORT understands.

The Portuguese playmaker is currently on loan at AC Milan from Chelsea.

However, the Serie A side are not planning to explore a permanent move.

Initial talks are ongoing, with Chelsea willing to consider sanctioning a loan deal for Felix.

The Blues are also open to permanent offers but will not agree to a cut-price sale.

Felix could come up against his parent club at the Club World Cup, with Flamengo and Chelsea both drawn into group D.

Meanwhile, the Brazilian club are set to complete the signing of Jorginho on a free transfer.

The Arsenal midfielder is another ex-Chelsea star after spending four-and-a-half years at Stamford Bridge between 2018 and 2023.

Matchday 35 in the Premier League draws to a close tonight as Crystal Palace host Nottingham Forest at Selhurst Park.

A win for the visitors would see them keep pace with their top five rivals in the race for Champions League qualification.

However, Forest would remain sixth on goal difference after Chelsea's win over Liverpool on Sunday.

As for Palace, they will end the night in 12th regardless of the result.

Oliver Glasner names an unchanged side from Palace's win over Aston Villa in last weekend's FA Cup semi-final.

Meanwhile, Nuno Espirito Santo makes two changes from Forest's loss to Brentford as Ibrahim Sangare and Nicolas Dominguez come in for Ryan Yates and Callum Hudson-Odoi.

Crystal Palace Starting XI: Henderson, Munoz, Richards, Lacroix, Guehi, Mitchell, Wharton, Kamada, Sarr, Eze, Mateta

Subs: Matthews, Lerma, Nketiah, Franca, Clyne, Hughes, Esse, Chilwell, Devenny

Nottingham Forest Starting XI: Sels, Murillo, Sangare, Williams, Anderson, Gibbs-White, Wood, Dominguez, Elanga, Milenkovic, Aina

Subs: Miguel, Morato, Awoniyi, Toffolo, Jota, Yates, Sosa, Danilo, Boly

Chelsea's wait to discover the identity of their final Club World Cup group opponent is set to continue.

Mexican side Club Leon were removed from the tournament in March due to FIFA's multi-club ownership rules.

However, Leon have now begun their Court of Arbitration for Sport hearing to be reinstated.

FIFA have already made plans in the event that their decision is upheld by the hearing.

A play-off between LAFC and Club America would decide who takes Leon's spot in the draw.

The 2023 CONCACAF Champions League winners had been drawn in group D alongside the Blues.

Flamengo and Tunisia's Esperance de Tunis complete the current line-up of the group.

The first edition of the expanded Club World Cup gets underway in the USA on June 14.

England manager Thomas Tuchel could well refuse to budge on releasing players for the Club World Cup.

However, reports claim that teams involved in the Club World Cup want their players released after the Andorra fixture to join preparations for the competition.

But Tuchel is going to be hard to win over, as he is said to want to keep his team together for the Senegal match.

The FA are said to still be working on their stance on the matter before further meetings will be held.

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher believes that Trent Alexander-Arnold has now become a rival to the club.

"I think they [the fans] sometimes forget where they were during that period of time.

"But I think [fan mentality towards Arteta] has shifted over the last couple of months and this league campaign, a lot more was expected."

talkSPORT understands that Liverpool will attack the transfer market this summer as they target three key positions.

Trent Alexander-Arnold has now announced his intention to leave Anfield, while Caoimhin Kelleher and Darwin Nunez are expected to be sold.

A number of Premier League clubs are ready to make Kelleher their number one goalkeeper.

Liverpool have very much kept their powder dry since Arne Slot came in as manager, with the only real incomings being Federico Chiesa and Giorgi Mamardashvili.

But, talkSPORT understands that the Reds are now likely to splash the cash this summer with a new left-back, centre-back and striker on their radar.

Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez and Fulham’s Antonee Robinson are targets to replace the struggling Andy Robertson.

Liverpool will be rivalling Arsenal and Manchester United in the striker market in the transfer window, with Viktor Gyokeres, Benjamin Sesko and Victor Osimhen all contenders.

As for centre-backs, Ibrahima Konate is in talks over a new deal while Jarell Quansah could be moved on.

Liverpool retain an interest in Cherries star Dean Huijsen, who has a £50m release clause.
