Fredrikstad vs Crystal Palace LIVE

A place in the Conference League proper awaits tonight’s victors as the Eagles look to finish the job away at their Norwegian counterparts. Jean-Philippe Mateta's late strike last week sees Palace take a slender first-leg advantage in their play-off decider, with their place in Friday’s league phase draw not yet confirmed.

Manager Oliver Glasner has already told his squad to "stay humble" as they embark on their first-ever European adventure, knowing the first hurdle has not yet been cleared. Palace are heavy favourites to reach the League Phase, but this still remains new territory for the south Londoners.

Another possible spanner in the works is Fredrikstad's artificial pitch, which has been described as a leveller for clubs venturing into Scandinavia. However, Palace know that tonight's opponents must show some attacking threat - something which was absent seven days ago - if they are to produce an upset.
