This marks the second win for the newly promoted side, who are navigating a challenging fixture list. Their previous two matches saw them lose to Manchester United and Liverpool, and in a few days, they face Arsenal in the League Cup. For Palace, this is their third league defeat.

The turning point at Selhurst Park was Axel Disasi's red card for Crystal Palace in the 34th minute. At that point, the score was already 1-1. The defender was sent off for a reckless challenge on Jack Clarke, with VAR intervening as the referee initially opted against a red card.

Earlier, new signing Anan Halaili had put the hosts ahead in the 14th minute, but Emerson, a former player under Stanimir Stoilov at Göztepe, equalized in the 23rd. Leif Davis then gave Ipswich the lead just before halftime.

Despite being down to ten men, the Londoners managed to draw level at 2-2 through Jorgen Larsen in the 75th minute.

However, it was the 'Tractor Boys' who celebrated at the end, securing all three points with their late winner.
