Oliver Glasner manages Nottingham Forest against Crystal Palace for the first time since leaving the club.

Oliver Glasner returns to Selhurst Park today to manage Nottingham Forest against Crystal Palace in the Premier League. The Austrian left Palace at the end of June after guiding the club to Conference League success with a 1-0 victory over Rayo Vallecano in Leipzig, their third trophy in 12 months.

Glasner arrived at Palace in February 2024 and oversaw a period of unprecedented success. He led the club to their first major trophy when they beat Manchester City in the 2025 FA Cup final. The run culminated in their Conference League triumph in June.

Glasner took over at Nottingham Forest a week after his Palace contract expired. The timing surprised some observers, particularly given that Palace had previously been denied a place in the Europa League following their FA Cup win due to a lengthy legal dispute with UEFA, with Nottingham Forest taking their place instead. It remains unclear what reception Glasner will receive from Palace supporters when he returns to Selhurst Park.
