Marc Guehi confident that away win is coming soon for Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi is 100 per cent confident that his side will get back to winning games away from home soon.

The Eagles secured their 11th draw of the Premier League campaign against London rivals Brentford after playing out a 0-0 draw in west London.

The last time Patrick Vieira’s side recorded an away win in the top-flight came against top of the table Manchester City in late October, with goals from Wilfried Zaha and Conor Gallagher seeing off Pep Guardiola’s 10 men.

Guehi, 21, has played the full 90 minutes in every Premier League game he has started under Vieira since joining from Chelsea in the summer.

When asked whether he was confident about getting back to winning ways, Guehi said: “100 per cent.

“We need to take each game as it comes, make sure that we’re fighting as we have today, and I am very, very sure that we will get the points that we need.”

Reflecting on the point at the Brentford Community Stadium, with Palace yet to pick up a win in the Premier League in 2022, Guehi added: “I’d say we are a bit disappointed.

“It’s a well-earned point, but we really want to come to these places and win.

“It was a well-earned point. It was a tough game, and this is a tough place to come to. They make it really difficult with the game that they play – playing balls in behind you. I thought we defended well.

“We kept the ball well – created good chances. We bided our time when we had the ball and took our time switching the play, but we just couldn’t find that killer pass or that killer shot. It’s disappointing.”
