Goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa ensured Brentford got off to a flying start with a 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace at the G-tech Community Stadium, despite Jordan Ayew's late involvement. Before Jordan's auditioning - with 20 minutes to go - the game was perfectly hanging in the balance at one-all. However, six minutes from his introduction, Yoane Wissa gave the Bees a cushion, adding to Bryan Mbeumo's finish. The win snapped Palace's seven-game unbeaten run from last season, with Brantford recording their first-ever Premier League win - at the seventh time of asking - against their London rivals. Palace never seemed to get going, despite being given a lifeline when Ethan Pinnock inadvertently put through his net after 56 minutes.
