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.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/holmesdaleradio. Hosted on Acast.

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.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/holmesdaleradio. Hosted on Acast.

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.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/holmesdaleradio. Hosted on Acast.

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.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/holmesdaleradio.

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.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/holmesdaleradio.

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. Ryan Leonard, introduced from the bench, nodded in a stoppage-time equaliser from a corner to force extra tension. 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.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/holmesdaleradio.

Crystal Palace look to maintain their unbeaten start this season when Sunderland visit Selhurst Park this weekend. The Eagles headed into the international break on a high after dismantling Aston Villa 3-0, and keeping captain Marc Guéhi at the club gives the squad added defensive stability. Despite missing key men like Ismaila Sarr and Adam Wharton, Palace will be confident of stretching their strong home record. Sunderland, fresh from impressive wins of their own, will pose tests — but Palace should edge this one in front of their fans.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/holmesdaleradio.

Oliver Glasner’s FA Cup-holding, Shield-winning Eagles head to Villa Park aiming to nick another statement result. Palace’s structure and quick transitions have travelled well under Glasner, and Jean-Philippe Mateta’s form gives bite on the break. Villa search for a first league win, while Palace juggle a midweek European trip yet carry belief and resilience from Wembley. If Palace stay compact and ruthless at set pieces, three points in claret country feel gettable. Up the Eagles.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/holmesdaleradio. Hosted on Acast.

Crystal Palace battled hard in a 1-1 draw with Notts Forest, and the Eagles will feel unlucky not to take all three points. Palace dominated possession, created the better chances, and showed more quality throughout. The visitors offered little threat aside from their fortunate goal, while Palace’s resilience and attacking intent shone. Selhurst Park backed the team brilliantly, and once again Palace proved they’re levels above Notts Forest, whose underhand off-field antics continue to tarnish their name.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/holmesdaleradio.

Crystal Palace edged out Fredrikstad 1-0 in a game that showed the gulf in class, even if the scoreline didn’t. Palace dominated possession, carved out the better chances, and never looked troubled at the back. The winning goal capped off a controlled performance that underlined the Eagles’ European pedigree. Fredrikstad offered little, with Palace’s quality shining through despite the narrow margin. A professional display and another step forward for the South Londoners.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/holmesdaleradio. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
