Crystal Palace will have an immediate opportunity to bounce back from Sunday's defeat to Manchester United, when travelling to Turf Moor for a midweek trip (Wednesday, 3rd December, 19:30 GMT) to Burnley in the Premier League.
It's the first of two league away fixtures in the space of a few days for the Eagles, who then go to Fulham on Sunday.
Speaking in his pre-match press conference, manager Oliver Glasner reflected on his first fixture in charge of Palace against the same opponent, Burnley's progress under Scott Parker and his various attacking options.
Read on below for the key talking points!
Yes it feels like a long time ago! How many games have I managed for Palace since then? I think it's more than 80. [83 to be exact]
It feels really far, far away. But of course I can remember Vincent Kompany was their manager and it was our first game at home at Selhurst. We had just two days of preparation and, of course, we managed to win 3-0.
That was a great start. A very warm welcome at Selhurst. I will always remember. But yes, it feels a long time ago.
Absolutely amazing. And I was really impressed because of course we watched also the Championship competition last year and they didn't concede goals.
It looked like they never concede goals. And I think they've broken the record for conceding the fewest goals in the Championship and having 30 clean sheets in the whole competition.
I also watched their game at Brentford now because it was on a Saturday and we played Sunday. It's similar like many games in the Premier League, small margins decided the game.
They conceded a penalty then they got themselves one and then it was one situation where Burnley took the lead.
Everything happened I think within the last 15 minutes before it was quite an open game. Tomorrow they are playing at home and I expect small margins to decide who takes the win.
We have had this situation before. In October he had a minor injury, before the international break.
He missed a few games and I think we did well there. We have a few options [in that position]. Of course we can play Romain [Esse] there.
We can play [Christantus] Uche there. We can play Justin Devenny there. We can also play Daichi Kamada there.
So we have a few options, but not one of them has the profile of Ismaila for making runs and... we can ask them, but it's not their natural habit to make these runs.
The game will be a little bit different and we have to find other solutions. Every player has his own quality, his own skills that can help the team and for us it's now finding the right set-up.
Every player has the opportunity in training and every single minute he gets in a game. We could play Eddie Nketiah as well, but it was his first time recently playing 60 minutes and we have to be careful with his injury record not to overload him.
But on the other side we have a few options and we'll try to find the right one.
Every player has his own quality, his own skills that can help the team
—Oliver Glasner
I'm very proud. This is what I also mentioned after the Manchester United game and I told the players again... I really, completely, trust this group of players.
Because I see their effort every single day. And then it just hurts, like the last two defeats, because it feels like we didn't deserve it.
We had four or five big chances and then we lose.
But again, in these two situations we took wrong decisions and were punished. And that hurts because I see all the effort of the players. I see they're giving everything and of course, they try until the final whistle in every single game.
I see how hard they are working, and not just this year, ever since I arrived to be honest. I feel responsible to support them more than I can give at the moment.
Of course, we are on the pitch [training] but this is again today 30 minutes. And we walked through a few set-plays. We worked in the meeting, which was longer than the time on the pitch.
This is now is the third game within six days. But we learn.
Sometimes you learn from training sessions, a mistake in training is good because no-one knows. Now we are learning in competitive games, sometimes with decisions or missed chances. Of course that hurts.
That's the rhythm we have to get used to. And we will – I trust these players.
I know we will play a great season again. We are still better in the points difference last season to this season. And although everyone talks about fatigue, the running numbers were even better than Manchester United who could rest for a whole week [before the game].
So all the facts don't tell us what we are feeling right at the moment. And that makes it a little bit tricky especially for me who is quite emotional after such a defeat.
But now when I speak to the players and watch training today, the positivity.. I really I love to work with them and it gives me a great feeling, and a great mood for the Burnley game.
