Bristol City have taken a two-goal lead after the first half against Crystal Palace at Ashton Gate.
The hosts took an early lead through Ryan Taylor, before Martyn Woolford doubled the advantage in the 12th minute.
Palace have struggled to affect the contest in the opening period, and will need a much-improved performance if they are to take anything from this game.
