Crystal Palace vs Rayo Vallecano

If Crystal Palace win the Conference League Final, they can take up the Europa League place denied them this season after they fell foul of Uefa’s multi-club ownership rules.
 
Last year’s FA Cup Winners were demoted to the Conference League after Uefa said John Textor had a controlling interest in Palace and Lyon, who had also qualified for the secondary European competition. Palace face Rayo Vallecano in Leipzig on Wednesday night at the end of their first European campaign in what will be Oliver Glasner’s last match.
 
Palace are hopeful of appointing Andoni Iraola as Glasner’s replacement, although it is understood that the outgoing Bournemouth manager also has interest from Milan and Bayer Leverkusen. Pierre Sage, who led Lens to second place in Ligue 1 this season, is understood to be a contender if Iraola turns them down. The Palace captain, Dean Henderson, said losing Glasner would be “a huge miss”.
