English Premier League · 16:26:09 - Wednesday, 4 November 2026

Crystal Palace have lodged an appeal against the red card shown to Jean-Philippe Mateta in their Premier League defeat to Tottenham Hotspur. The French forward was dismissed during the match, and the club is contesting the decision in a bid to avoid a three-match suspension.

The incident occurred in the 2026/27 season fixture at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Mateta, who has been a key figure for Palace, could miss upcoming league games if the appeal is unsuccessful. The club confirmed the appeal on November 3, 2026.
