Crystal Palace's 2-0 home defeat by Newcastle leaves Pierre Sage under significant pressure, with the Eagles having won just two of eight Premier League games and conceding 50 top-flight goals in 2026 — at least four more than any other side.

Liam Delap failed to find the net on his return to Portman Road as Nottingham Forest were held to a 1-1 draw by Ipswich Town. Neco Williams put Forest ahead before Nikola Milenkovic’s back-pass error allowed Julio Enciso to equalise, and Delap missed a late gilt-edged chance.
Ipswich Town earned a 1-1 Premier League draw with Nottingham Forest at Portman Road as Julio Enciso cancelled out Neco Williams’ opener.
