Read our privacy policy Jean-Philippe Mateta fired Crystal Palace to a first Premier League away win of the season and left Ipswich still without a victory on home soil. It is now two wins and three draws from the last six matches for Oliver Glasner’s side, whose winter revival is gathering pace nicely following a sticky start to the campaign. For Palace, Cheick Doucoure’s fierce shot from the edge of the box was blocked by Jacob Greaves before Mateta sent Eberechi Eze racing through, with Arijanet Muric saving the midfielder’s effort. The same combination almost doubled Palace’s lead, Eze lifting the ball in behind for Mateta to chase but this time Muric spread himself well to make a save.
