Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta will miss three matches after his appeal against a red card was rejected, the club confirmed on Wednesday.
Mateta was sent off during the Premier League match against Tottenham Hotspur at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for a challenge on Jan Paul van Hecke and Micky van de Ven. The red card was upheld following a review, resulting in a three-match suspension.
The decision means Mateta will be unavailable for Palace's upcoming fixtures.
