- Venue: Stade de la Meinau
Two teams that are separated by a point in the Conference League meet on Thursday night, and the picture feels a little tighter than the one painted by the preliminary standings. Strasbourg play host to Crystal Palace at the Meinau, which is accustomed to carrying an extra bit of noise on European nights. In addition, both clubs just so happen to currently maintain fifth place in their domestic leagues, making this game feel strangely balanced. The bookies favour Palace – possibly due to having the stronger squad, or just the prestige of being a Premier League team – but Strasbourg have not dropped points at home in Europe this year.
H2H stats
This will be the first time Strasbourg and Crystal Palace share a pitch, which feels surprising given how long both clubs have been around. History offers a mixed picture for the hosts. Their record against English teams is far from encouraging, with only one win from four attempts, and those were against heavyweights like Liverpool and Manchester United.
Strasbourg team overview
Strasbourg had to fight their way through the playoffs to get into the Conference League, and you can sense they are trying to make the most of that second chance.
Le Racing have stayed unbeaten in their three group matches, collecting two wins and a draw, although the slip at home lingers in the minds of supporters.
The pattern is a bit worrying because their last two European home games also ended level, and they now return to continental action after a narrow 1–0 loss to Lens in Ligue 1.
Valentín Barco’s red card in the league will not affect him here, which helps a little, but several others are still missing. The match comes too early for Maxi Oyedele, Karl-Johan Johnsson, Abdoul Ouattara and Saïdou Sow, all dealing with injuries that continue to limit the squad.

Crystal Palace team overview
Crystal Palace also had to navigate the playoff path before stepping into the group stage this season, scraping past Fredrikstad with a tight 1–0 win stretched over 180 minutes.
Once the real competition began, though, the Eagles looked far more assured, winning two of their three matches and scoring at least twice in both victories. Their domestic form points in the same direction, with two wins and a draw from their last three Premier League outings, which suggests a team growing more settled under Oliver Glasner’s approach.
The only cloud hangs over their medical room. Caleb Kporha remains out with a persistent back issue that has kept him sidelined for twenty straight matches, leaving Palace slightly thinner in defensive options than they would like.

Prediction
Strasbourg and Crystal Palace arrive in decent shape, though the visitors look slightly sharper in both Europe and their domestic league. Palace have scored twice in two of their three group games, while Strasbourg’s home form in Europe has dipped with two straight draws. With both sides carrying momentum, a tight contest feels likely, with Palace edging the attacking rhythm.
Three reasons we expect under 2.5 goals in this game
- Strasbourg have conceded under 1.5 goals in all but one of their eight home games this season.
- Bets on under 2.5 goals won in each of the last two games of Palace in Europe.
- Crystal Palce conceded just one goal over the course of their last five matches.
