Brentford vs Crystal Palace – Match preview and team news Brentford face Crystal Palace on Sunday afternoon in their final home game of the Premier League season. Keith Andrews has guided the Bees into eighth place during a brilliant debut campaign on the bench. The hosts remain firmly in the hunt for European qualification with two matches remaining.
Meanwhile, Crystal Palace visit the Gtech Community Stadium having already secured their top-flight safety under Oliver Glasner. The Eagles have an exciting Europa Conference League final against Rayo Vallecano to look forward to later this month. The visitors are winless in five league fixtures following a 3-0 defeat against Manchester City on Wednesday.

Palace won the reverse fixture 2-0 in November and seek a first league double over Brentford since 1958.
