<p>NEWCASTLE, England (AP)  Papiss Cisse scored in the fourth minute of stoppage time for Newcastle to beat Crystal Palace 1-0 in the English Premier League on Saturday.</p>
<p>Palace, at risk of relegation, looked like leaving St. James' Park with a point thanks to goalkeeper Julian Speroni.</p>
<p>But Cisse, denied three times previously by Speroni, headed in replacement Hatem Ben Arfa's cross.</p>
<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>
<p>It was only Cisse's fourth goal of the season, and first since Jan. 4. He and Luuk d Jong, yet to score since he arrived on loan from Borussia Moenchengladbach, are Newcastle's underpowered strike force in the absence of the injured Loic Remy.</p>

Crystal Palace

Newcastle United

The last five times Newcastle United have scored a goal, they've won. The problem with that formula is that to find five matches in which they've scored, you'll have to look through three months of Premier League results.
Another shot at a club near the relegation zone could help fix the attacking woes Saturday as the Magpies welcome Crystal Palace to St. James' Park, though the home side will be without top scorer Loic Remy. That's an obstacle they haven't been able to overcome all season.
