Glasner stated that the best leaving gift his team could give him would be to win the final, thereby securing Europa League football for Crystal Palace next season. Under Glasner's tenure, Crystal Palace achieved their first major silverware by winning the 2025 FA Cup against Manchester City, and subsequently the Community Shield against Liverpool. The prospect of Europa League qualification is particularly meaningful as Palace were previously denied a spot due to a multi-club ownership conflict involving John Textor, despite their FA Cup victory. Key players Chris Richards and Adam Wharton are available for the final, with captain Dean Henderson highlighting the team's calm and experienced mindset ahead of the crucial match.
