Crystal Palace return to Selhurst this weekend desperate to bounce back after their 19-match unbeaten streak was finally halted by Everton. Bournemouth arrive in fine form and will be no pushovers. All eyes will be on Mateta, who remains Palace’s talisman, and the lingering tension from Wilfried Zaha’s furious public response to Mateta’s recent interview flair.

Crystal Palace delivered a composed European performance, claiming a 2-0 win over Dynamo. Muñoz powered home a header to set the tone, and Nketiah’s clinical strike put the game beyond reach. Palace’s defence looked solid throughout, limiting Dynamo to scraps and late half-chances. Even with Borna Sosa dismissed, the Eagles controlled proceedings. It was a disciplined, confident display abroad — the kind of result that makes Palace believe they belong on this stage.

Crystal Palace head into their first European outing full of swagger — 18 games unbeaten and buoyed by a late winner over Liverpool. Facing Dynamo Kyiv in Poland (yes, Poland — courtesy of the war), the Eagles will be fancying their chances. Dynamo have stumbled in Europe lately. Expect an open, end-to-end affair where Palace’s momentum could just tip the balance.

Selhurst Park roared as Palace stunned Liverpool 2-1 in a thriller. Sarr’s opener gave the Eagles belief, and though Chiesa levelled for the visitors on 87 minutes, Palace refused to fold. Deep into stoppage time, Nketiah smashed home the winner, sending the Holmesdale into delirium. Palace showed grit, heart and sheer refusal to settle. Beating Liverpool at the death wasn’t luck — it was character, and it proves this team belongs on the big stage.

Crystal Palace welcome Liverpool to Selhurst Park on Saturday, with both sides still unbeaten in the league. Palace, buoyed by their strong start, know Liverpool’s record in SE25 is daunting, but this squad has shown real resilience and belief. If Ismaïla Sarr is fit and Tyrick Mitchell continues his fine form, Palace can cause real problems. Liverpool arrive without suspended Hugo Ekitike, giving Palace an opportunity to seize momentum and deliver a statement win at home.

Crystal Palace edged West Ham 2-1 away in fine style, showing grit and clever set-piece work. Jean-Philippe Mateta nodded in from a corner just before half-time, putting Palace ahead. After Bowen pulled one back early in the second half, Tyrick Mitchell drilled a superb volley to restore the lead and seal it. Defensively solid, Palace frustrated West Ham’s sporadic attacking moments and extended their unbeaten run, while Potter’s side again looked uncomfortable at home.

Crystal Palace head to the London Stadium tomorrow aiming to extend their fine form under Glasner. The Eagles’ defensive solidity has been a cornerstone, with Marc Guéhi marshalling the back line superbly. In attack, Jean-Philippe Mateta looks a constant threat, supported by Kamada’s creativity. West Ham have struggled for consistency and their backline has looked shaky. With Palace’s growing confidence and strong team spirit, this fixture represents a real chance to claim all three points in London.

Crystal Palace were pegged back by Millwall in dramatic fashion at Selhurst Park yesterday, drawing 1-1 after Chris Richards’ 72nd-minute header had looked like it would seal it.

In the penalty shootout, debutant goalkeeper Walter Benítez proved decisive, saving two penalties as Palace won the tie 4-2 and advanced to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup.

Crystal Palace were held to a 0-0 draw by Sunderland at Selhurst Park, but the Eagles can feel hard done by. Palace dominated the ball, pinned the visitors back for long spells, and carved out several decent openings, only to be denied by poor finishing and a stubborn Sunderland defence. The visitors rarely threatened, clearly content with a point. While the scoreline flatters Sunderland, Palace supporters will see plenty of positives—this was a game we should have won.
