Crystal Palace are determined to clinch their spot in the Conference League last 16 and with Zrinjski struggling on the travels, we predict a 2-0 home win. The Eagles return to Selhurst Park after a 1–1 draw in Mostar, but Oliver Glasner must cope without several key attackers as Mateta, Nketiah, Lerma, and Lacroix are all sidelined. Despite that, Palace still generate decent underlying numbers at home: they produce 1.61 xG and average 2.50 total goals per home match, though their scoring output sits at just 1.00 goal per game. Defensive stability is mixed—50% clean sheets at home, but also conceding 1.50 goals on average.
Zrinjski, meanwhile, travel to London with no fresh injuries and confidence from a stable run of form (1.30 PPG overall). Their away attack is weak, scoring just 0.33 goals per away game and failing to score in 67% of away matches, despite creating 1.16 xG on the road. The Bosnians, however, defend well enough to stay competitive, allowing only 1.33 away goals per match.
Considering Crystal Palace's stronger squad depth even with injuries, we believe that there is big value in betting on Home Win, alongside Larsen to Score and Under 3.5 goals (Zrinjski struggle away (0.33 goals scored), Palace not free-scoring).
This Europa Conference League match will be played on Thursday 26 February 2026 at 20:00.
