Crystal Palace v Rayo Vallecano | 2026 Conference League Final Preview

We're back to talk Conference League final! Crystal Palace and Rayo Vallecano face off in what some are calling the most wholesome final of all time. We talk all about their respective journeys to the final, their very brief European journeys of the past, and what it would mean to capture a first continental trophy. We also revisit some of the more extraordinary off-the-pitch circumstances Rayo has had to overcome to be here, thanks to their diabolical owner. Finally, we give our 3 keys to victory for each side and deliberate on which tactics may be deployed to gain advantages in what is likely to be a matchup with a razor-thin margin. We may even take a brief detour on our beloved Intertoto Cup. Cheers Oliver Glasner and Iñigo Pérez!
