Crystal Palace 1-2 Watford
Premier League 2018-19
Venue: Selhurst Park
Tom Cleverley scored a wonder volley as Watford fought from behind to secure a 2-1 victory against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Palace took the lead in the opening period after Craig Cathcart's own goal, but the Watford defender made amends when he converted Jose Holebas' corner with 67 minutes gone.
Substitute Cleverley, who had only been on the pitch for six minutes, then netted his first goal in more than a year to complete the fightback from Javi Gracia's side.
The victory moved Watford back ahead of West Ham, following their earlier win against Arsenal, and into seventh after Leicester's defeat against Southampton.
