FORM GUIDE

Bradford arrive in south London in excellent form, progressing to Round Three with a 4–1 win over York City following a 5–3 victory against Stockton Town.

For Palace, tonight marks the start of a new Youth Cup journey. The young Eagles will be looking to go one better than last season, when they were narrowly edged out 1–0 by 2023/24 champions Manchester City at this stage.

With all Premier League and Championship academies entering in Round Three, tonight’s fixture serves as Palace’s tournament curtain-raiser.

If the scores are level after 90 minutes, extra-time – and, if required, penalties – will decide who progresses.
