C Palace v Ipswich

A burst from Enciso creates an opening for Ipswich on the right, and Richards is forced to step in and concede the corner, though nothing comes of it. Ipswich have begun the second half strongly, knowing that another goal would make things incredibly difficult for their opponents in terms of finding a way back into the match.

Palace get us going for the second half. No further changes from either side at the break.

Sage will be concerned with how his team ended the half, with Palace failing to muster an effort after the 17th minute. Meanwhile, Ipswich are leading a Premier League match at half-time for the first time since April 2025, when they took the lead against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Ipswich Town lead Crystal Palace 2-1 after an eventful first 45 minutes at Selhurst Park. The home side took the lead after 14 minutes, as Kamada picked out Khalaili, and he made no mistake with a shot that arrowed into the far corner. The home side were on top and went close to a second, with Scherpen keeping out a half-volley from Strand Larsen. However, Ipswich would equalise with their first effort of the day, as Emersonn crashed a header into the net after a brilliant cross from Davis. The match then turned as Disasi was sent off for a high challenge on Clarke. Ipswich made the most of this numerical advantage, taking the lead as the two players combined once again, with Davis finding the net on this occasion. Palace have generated an xG of 0.41, while Ipswich have created 0.83.

HALF-TIME: CRYSTAL PALACE 1-2 IPSWICH TOWN

Palace win a free-kick after Palacios brings down Wharton. The delivery is curled in by the England international, but it's overhit, and the visitors can see it out for a goal-kick. They may have 10 men, but it just has not been good enough from the home side after scoring the first goal of the match.
