Crystal Palace's outstanding recent record against West Ham United in East London continued on Saturday with a 2-1 win at London Stadium.
A header from Jean-Philippe Mateta and a volley from Tyrick Mitchell – the latter a sumptuous strike on his less-favoured right foot – proved enough to secure Palace's second London derby win of the week, and move the Eagles temporarily up to fourth in the table.
Here were the key numbers from London Stadium...
Matches unbeaten now in all competitions – the joint-second longest run of games without defeat in our history (behind an 18-game run in August 1969).
Saturday's win took us fourth in the Premier League table at the close of the day, the highest we've been in the rankings since October 2019 (when we also went fourth, albeit after eight matches, with a 2-1 win at West Ham!).
Days separating our win over Millwall at Selhurst Park, and our win against West Ham at London Stadium.
Jean-Philippe Mateta's opener at London Stadium was Palace's 700th goal in the Premier League.
Competitive goals for Mateta in a Crystal Palace shirt, following his first-half opener in East London, including...
Five goals in six appearances for JP against West Ham – including five in his last four games against West Ham, and three in his last two matches at London Stadium!
... of Mateta's goals have come in 68 matches under Oliver Glasner.
Mateta's effort was also his 40th in the Premier League. He is behind only Wilfried Zaha on 68 strikes in the competition for Palace.
Days separating Tyrick Mitchell's last two goals – against Manchester United on 6th May 2024 at Selhurst Park (44 games ago), and against the Hammers on Saturday!
Goal for Mitchell in Palace colours, and...
With his right foot – what a hit!
Palace are now only one of two teams undefeated thus far in the 2025/26 Premier League. The other? Our next opponents, Liverpool!
Our 17-match unbeaten run is the fourth-longest unbeaten run of any 'non-Big Six' club in Premier League history – and the longest since Wimbledon's in 1996.
Of those matches have been in the Premier League – our club-record run in the competition.
Clean sheets in our last 16 away matches. Prior to that run, it had previously taken us 51 matches to pick up nine away clean sheets!
Palace are now undefeated in our last seven trips to London Stadium.
The last time Palace recorded a second consecutive win away at West Ham United.
