Crystal Palace currently sit 7th in the Conference League standings, having collected three points from their opening match. The Eagles made an impressive start to their campaign with a 2-0 away win over Dynamo Kyiv, thanks to goals from Eddie Nketiah and Daniel Munoz.
Oliver Glasner’s side come into this fixture in good form, recording three wins, one draw, and one loss in their last five matches. Over the weekend, Palace played out an exciting 3-3 draw against Bournemouth, showing great resilience to come back from 2-0 down. They nearly snatched all three points at the end, but top scorer Jean-Philippe Mateta—who has netted six times this season—missed a golden opportunity from close range.
Palace’s recent games have been entertaining, with over 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five outings. Both teams have scored in four of those matches as well. At Selhurst Park, Palace remain unbeaten this season, winning two and drawing three of their five home fixtures.
AEK Larnaca, meanwhile, are 2nd in the Conference League group with three points after a commanding 4-0 victory over AZ Alkmaar in their opening match. Domestically, the Cypriot side have had a solid, if unspectacular, start—winning four, drawing one, and losing two of their seven league games to sit 5th in the table.
Like Palace, Larnaca’s recent matches have been high-scoring affairs, with over 2.5 goals in four of their last five games. Those fixtures have averaged 4.2 goals per match.
This encounter promises to be an entertaining one with goals likely at both ends. However, Palace are clear favourites, especially given their strong record at Selhurst Park and the quality within their squad. They will be confident of securing another win on home soil.
