The Eagles head to the historic Stadio Artemio Franchi with one foot firmly in the Conference League Semi-Finals. Holding a commanding 3-0 lead from the first leg, Palace are just 90 minutes away from their first-ever major European semi-final. However, Oliver Glasner will be wary of complacency against a Fiorentina side renowned for their "remontada" spirit and a partisan home crowd that will be desperate to see an early breakthrough.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/holmesdaleradio

The Jean-Philippe Mateta redemption arc is officially nearly complete (perhaps). On an afternoon that looked destined for frustration, the Frenchman stepped off the bench to score two late goals-including a 94th-minute penalty- to secure a thrilling 2-1 comeback win over Newcastle. Despite William Osula giving a depleted Magpies side the lead against the run of play, Palace's persistence paid off, turning the stadium from a place of tension into a scene of pure jubilation.Support this show
