Zrinjski Mostar enter this tie aiming to respond after a heavy 3-0 derby defeat to Borac Banja Luka, but with Crystal Palace having big ambitions for the Europa Conference League, we predict a 1-0 away win. The Bosnian outfit have taken 1.40 points per game overall, while their home return sits at 1.33 PPG. Zrinjski’s defensive numbers remain strong, conceding just 0.83 goals per home match and keeping 33% clean sheets. However, goals have been an issue, with the team failing to score in 33% of their home fixtures and averaging only 1.17 goals at home.
Crystal Palace travel to Mostar with injury concerns as Doucouré and Mateta remain sidelined, while Eddie Nketiah is a major doubt. New January signing Jorgen Strand Larsen is expected to lead the line. Palace’s form is worrying at 0.60 PPG, including 0.40 PPG away. The Premier League side average just 0.80 goals per match, but their matches still produce 2.30 goals on average, largely due to defensive frailties—conceding 1.50 goals per game.
Zrinjski have low-scoring profile and with Palace lacking some forwards, Under 2.5 goals is our main betting tip, with additional value on Palace to Win and Palace to Score First as gap in quality between the two sides is huge.
This Europa Conference League match will be played on Thursday 19 February 2026 at 17:45.
