AI preview

Written before the match

Lech Poznan's total of 16 goals over the listed matches contrasts with a Crystal Palace defence conceding 14 goals over their own recent stretch.

Recent form

Crystal Palace enter this encounter following a mixed spell, most recently suffering a 3:2 defeat against Ipswich on September 12. Their recent record includes a 3:0 win over Middlesbrough in the League Cup and a 3:2 victory against Fulham, though they were also beaten by Manchester City and Everton. J. Strand Larsen has been their most productive player with 3 goals and 1 assist over the listed matches, while Dean Henderson has recorded 12 saves in his 3 appearances. Lech Poznan's form is stronger, featuring wins over FC Thun, Widzew Łódź, Jagiellonia, and Raków Częstochowa before a 2:1 loss to Gornik Zabrze on September 12. Pablo Rodríguez has been a key figure for them with 1 goal and 1 assist over the listed matches, while M. Lis has made 9 saves across his 4 appearances.

Key factors
  • Crystal Palace are without C. Doucoure, C. Riad, and Dean Henderson, three of the nine ruled out.
  • Lech Poznan are missing A. Douglas, A. Gholizadeh, and A. Kozubal, three of the four ruled out.
  • J. Strand Larsen has contributed 3 goals and 1 assist over the listed matches for Crystal Palace.
  • Pablo Rodríguez has recorded 1 goal and 1 assist over the listed matches for Lech Poznan.
  • Lech Poznan have averaged 17 shots per match across their recent six fixtures, while Crystal Palace have been limited to 10 shots per match.
What to expect

Lech Poznan appear to be in better form heading into this European tie, having demonstrated a more consistent attacking output than their hosts. While Crystal Palace have J. Strand Larsen, who has contributed 3 goals and 1 assist over the listed matches, their recent defensive record is a concern. With Pablo Rodríguez and his 1 goal and 1 assist over the listed matches spearheading the visitors' attack, Lech Poznan look well-placed to challenge for a result at Selhurst Park.
