Injury Update on Key Attacker
Crystal Palace will be without Ismaïla Sarr for the next three games at minimum due to a groin issue. The 28-year-old Senegal international has featured in just five matches across all competitions this season after topping the Conference League scoring charts last term. His absence comes at a time when the team has struggled in his absence, losing five of the eight games played without him.
Sage Looks Ahead to Fixtures
Manager Pierre Sage secured a Carabao Cup victory at Fulham with heavy rotation and now turns to a Premier League trip to Tottenham, a Europa League home match against Hoffenheim and a home league game versus Liverpool before the international break. He stressed that every point carries equal value regardless of opponent and confirmed the approach of rotating players to maintain freshness will continue. Jean-Philippe Mateta, rested for the cup win, is expected to start against Tottenham.
Other Player News and League Standing
Jorgen Strand Larsen is recovering from an ankle problem sustained in the 2-2 draw with Besiktas and will rejoin training soon. Quinten Timber is also in contention for selection while captain Dean Henderson showed positive signs after his first start following injury. The side sits one place and one point above the relegation zone. Sage noted the cup performance offers encouragement but must now be replicated in league play.
