Any slim hopes of repeating

Published on May 10, 2024

Any slim hopes of repeating last season’s heroics of finishing in the Champions League spots are surely over after their fourth defeat in six Premier League games in London this season.In just nine appearances, Mateta has scored more Premier League goals for Crystal Palace under Glasner (8) than he did under either Hodgson (5 in 35 games) or Vieira (6 in 44).

Indeed, since Glasner’s first Premier League game in charge (24th February), only Cole Palmer (10) has scored more goals in the competition than Frenchman (8).

Only against Manchester City in August (1) have Newcastle recorded fewer shots on target in a Premier League game this season than their two against Crystal Palace.

Newcastle have lost eight of their last 11 Premier League away games (W3), while they’ve now lost on four occasions in London in the league this term, only doing so more times in a Premier League season in 2000-01 and 2005-06 (both 5).
