"Palace were surprisingly held in the first leg in Bosnia last week, the Eagles left to settle for a 1-1 draw. Oliver Glasner will leave his post as manager at the end of the season, but Palace's performance in the first leg led to chants about the prospect of his dismissal ahead of time from the fans who made the long trip East."
"The Eagles have had the most attempts (118) of any team in the 2025/26 Conference League. Only Alkmaar (42) have had more corners than Palace (41), who have also been adjudged offside most often (21). Ismaila Sarr's three goals make him the joint-fourth top scorer in this season's competition."
"Palace's 1-0 win over Wolves on Sunday was their first home victory since they beat Alkmaar 3-1 on November 6, spanning nine matches in all competitions. Zrinjski have faced a side from England before, losing 1-0 at Aston Villa."
Crystal Palace face Zrinjski Mostar in the second leg of their Conference League play-off round tie after drawing 1-1 in Bosnia. Manager Oliver Glasner, departing at season's end, aims to keep trophy hopes alive despite fan frustration from the first-leg performance. Palace have been strong in the competition, recording 118 attempts and 41 corners, the most of any team. Ismaila Sarr has scored three goals this season. Palace recently ended a nine-match home winless streak with a 1-0 victory over Wolves. Zrinjski have previous experience against English opposition, having faced Aston Villa.
