Oliver Glasner is about to enter the final six months of his contract at Crystal Palace

As if two games in 48 hours were not enough, Crystal Palace now face an additional two-legged play-off to keep their European dream alive.

Thursday's frustrating 2-2 draw with Finnish champions KuPS left Palace outside the automatic last-16 places in the Conference League, Europe's third-tier competition.

The Eagles, who are making their debut in major European competition, will have to play additional matches on 19 February and 26 February for the right to play in the knockout stage after finishing 10th in the table.

Boss Oliver Glasner named an under-strength team packed with fringe and academy players because of the tight turnaround.
