The 2025–26 season is the 120th season in the history of Crystal Palace Football Club, and their thirteenth consecutive season in the Premier League. In addition to the domestic league, the club is also participating in the FA Cup, the EFL Cup, the UEFA Conference League, and the FA Community Shield, with the latter two being the club's debut appearance in the respective tournaments.
This is the first season since 2011–12 not to feature former club captain Joel Ward, who departed Palace after thirteen years following the expiration of his contract. He was the last remaining player from the side of 2012–13 that achieved promotion to the Premier League from the EFL Championship, and left Nathaniel Clyne as the last remaining player to have represented the club in the second division.
Season summary
Palace began their season on 10 August 2025 against Liverpool at Wembley in the FA Community Shield. After a 2–2 draw, Palace won in a penalty shoot-out with goalkeeper Dean Henderson making two saves.[1] Palace would beat Liverpool again the following month, with a 2–1 win in the league.[2]
On 21 August, Jean-Philippe Mateta netted Palace's first goal in European competitions, securing a 1–0 win over Fredrikstad in the UEFA Conference League play-off round.[3] Summer trading in the transfer market saw England international Eberechi Eze leave for Arsenal for a fee of £60 million (possibly rising to £67 million), a record amount received by Crystal Palace. Incomings included Spanish international Yéremy Pino and French under-21 defender Jaydee Canvot. A late transfer move by Liverpool F.C. for club captain Marc Guéhi was cancelled after a deal had been agreed.[4]
The team made a good start to the Premier League, sitting in 4th place in the table after 15 games of the season in early December.[5] They then embarked on a winless run of 9 games, slipping to 15th place at the end of January 2026. The poor form extended to the cup competitions, with the club losing an EFL Cup quarter-final to Arsenal in December, and a shock defeat to non-league Macclesfield in the FA Cup.[6]
The January transfer window saw Guéhi leave for Manchester City and forwards Brennan Johnson, Jørgen Strand Larsen (for a club record fee of £43 million) and Evann Guessand (on loan) arrive.[7]

UEFA Conference League
Crystal Palace, as winners of the 2024–25 FA Cup, were initially meant to qualify for the league phase of the 2025–26 UEFA Europa League, however they were rejected the right to play in the competition due to multi-club ownership with fellow league phase qualifiers Lyon.[83] Lyon's status in the competition was maintained due to having a higher league position than Palace at the end of the season. Despite an unsuccessful appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, Palace were ultimately demoted to play in the play-off round of the 2025–26 UEFA Conference League instead.[84][85]
Play-off round
Palace were drawn against the loser of the Europa League third qualifying round tie between Fredrikstad and Midtjylland, which was won by Midtjylland.[86][87]
