Overview
- Jean-Philippe Mateta’s header settled the first leg at Selhurst Park to give Palace a 1-0 aggregate advantage.
- The return kicks off Thursday at 17:00 BST at Fredrikstad Stadion on an artificial surface, live on Channel 5, and a draw would be enough for Palace to progress.
- Glasner has emphasized staying grounded and has had his squad train at the stadium to adjust to the AstroTurf.
- Team news includes Daichi Kamada as a doubt, with Eddie Nketiah, Cheick Doucouré and Chadi Riad out; Will Hughes did not travel and Odsonne Edouard will not feature, while captain Marc Guehi is set to start despite links to Liverpool.
- Fredrikstad failed to register a shot on target in the first leg but anticipate a loud home crowd after strong advance ticket sales.
