Jean-Philippe Mateta
28-Year-Old
Crystal Palace
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Mateta got off to a slow start in his first full season under Oliver Glasner, and then he caught fire for a few months before finishing slow after busting his nose in March. Along with Crystal Palace as a whole, he tended to score his 14 goals in bunches, including three braces last season. Mateta isn't likely to push any of the elite strikers in the Premier League or top 20 goals, but with a strong attack built around him he should be a solid option for double-digit goals once more. No matter what happens in the squad around him, Mateta's role is as a true No. 9 who can score in a variety of ways.

Hat trick in draw
Mateta scored three goals to go with 11 shots (five on goal) and one cross (one accurate) in Saturday's 3-3 draw versus AFC Bournemouth.
ANALYSIS
Mateta turned in a sensational showing Saturday scoring a hat‑trick (including a stoppage‑time penalty) to help Palace come back from 0‑2 down to draw 3‑3. The striker was a constant menace, placing five shots on target and having two other attempts blocked. This performance comes on the back of his last game which was for France in the UEFA World Cup qualifiers where he netted two against Iceland. The regular starter has now accrued five EPL goals this season.

ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old French striker has been linked with a move away from Palace for quite some time. Even though he has no interest in a move to Leeds United, it's worth noting he'd be open to joining Aston Villa in the coming months. Don't be surprised if the Midlands club makes a move for the French striker in January.
