LONDON (Reuters) -Crystal Palace brushed aside London rivals Brentford in a comfortable 2-0 home win in the Premier League on Saturday, thanks to Jean-Philippe Mateta's header and a Nathan Collins own goal.

Mateta gave Palace a deserved lead in the 30th minute after Jefferson Lerma headed the impressive Yeremy Pino's booming freekick back across goal for the French striker to nod home his sixth league goal of the campaign.
