This is Crystal Palace’s final friendly game before they play Brentford in their opening match of the 2024-25 Premier League season on August 18.
The hosts’ 2023-24 campaign seemed precarious at one point, with the club fifth last in 16th place when previous boss Roy Hodgson stepped down from his position. In fact, the Eagles had lost 10 of their last 16 Premier League games under Hodgson, and Glasner’s appointment in February only heralded one win in his first seven Premier League fixtures.

Opponents Nantes finished 14th last term with a points per game record of 0.97, a figure which only slightly bettered 2022-23’s return of 0.95 points per game.
The visitors scored 30 goals and conceded 55 times in 2023-24, and this made them the division’s second-worst offensive and joint fourth-worst defensive side. Manager Antoine Kombouare replaced Jocelyn Gourvennec in March, but Gourvennec himself replaced Pierre Aristouy in November.

Crystal Palace’s excellent form at the end of 2023-24 has continued into their pre-season matches, and it would be unsurprising if they managed to create numerous opportunities against Nantes on Sunday. However, the Ligue 1 club have performed well in their pre-season fixtures so far, and could cause Palace some difficulties.
Crystal Palace 1-1 Nantes, predicted by us.
