Crystal Palace hosts Aston Villa in the final, 38th round, of the English Premier League.
The scoring in the match was opened by forward Jean-Philippe Mateta, thereby replicating the achievement of legendary former Arsenal forward Thierry Henry.
At 26 years old, Mateta became only the second Frenchman in the league's history to score consecutively in seven home matches for his team, following Henry's feat from May to October 2004.
In total, this season, the French striker has scored 17 goals and provided 4 assists in 39 matches across all competitions. In the Premier League, this goal marks his 14th.
Mateta has been playing for Crystal Palace since 2022. The Eagles paid German side Mainz €11 million for the player.
