Line-ups confirmed for Conference League semi-final
Crystal Palace welcome Shakhtar Donetsk to Selhurst Park for their UEFA Conference League semi-final second leg tonight.
The Eagles are in control of the tie, leading 3-1 against their Ukrainian opponents, but they must still put in a strong performance if they are to book their place in the final.
Oliver Glasner opted to rotate his squad in the Premier League at the weekend, with the Eagles losing 3-0 to Bournemouth.
There will be no such attitude tonight, though. Catch up with all the team news right here on 101GreatGoals.
