Crystal Palace Performance Check

Under the stewardship of Oliver Glasner, Crystal Palace has displayed mixed form in recent matches, with two wins, one draw, and two defeats in their last five outings across all competitions. Their recent 2-0 victory against Brentford FC is a testament to their potential when playing at home.
