About Crystal Palace v Aston Villa

A late-season Premier League fixture with a Saturday early-afternoon kick-off, the kind of slot that fills the surrounding streets with fans hours before the game. By this point in the campaign, both sides know exactly what is at stake, whether that is European qualification, a mid-table finish, or an anxious look over the shoulder at the bottom of the table. Expect a full house, plenty of noise, and pubs around the ground doing brisk trade from midday onwards.

Chelsea offers a smarter, more central alternative with a wider choice of places to eat and drink before or after the match. London itself, with well over a thousand hotels on offer, gives the most flexibility on price and location, with regular trains and buses connecting into Selhurst Park from the wider city network.

About Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace's roots reach back to 1861, making the club, in one form, among those that helped found the Football Association and the FA Cup, though the professional club familiar today was established in 1905. Known as the Glaziers for decades — a nod to the glass-built Crystal Palace exhibition hall — the club became the Eagles under manager Malcolm Allison, who drew on Portuguese side Benfica for the new badge and identity.

That long history had gone entirely without a major trophy until 17 May 2025, when Eberechi Eze's first-half strike and a Dean Henderson penalty save beat Manchester City 1-0 in the FA Cup final, delivering Palace's first major honour after more than a century of trying.

Crystal Palace records & quirks

  • The Crystal Palace exhibition building hosted 20 FA Cup finals between 1895 and 1914, a decade before the football club took its name into the professional era.
  • Palace's record league win is 9-0 against Barrow in 1959; their heaviest defeat is 9-0 away at Liverpool in 1989.
  • Selhurst Park's record attendance, 51,482, came in May 1979 for the match that won Palace the old Second Division title.
  • Palace's long-standing 18-game unbeaten run from 1969 was finally broken in October 2025, by a 19-match run under Oliver Glasner.

About Selhurst Park

Crystal Palace's home in south London is a proper neighbourhood ground, famous for one of the league's loudest and most colourful home ends. Selhurst sits among the residential streets of southeast London, with the bars and markets of Croydon a short ride away and central London within easy reach. Selhurst, Norwood Junction and Thornton Heath stations all serve the ground, each a few minutes' walk. Staying centrally or around Croydon keeps transport simple and lets you ride the rail straight into the matchday bustle.
