Crystal Palace kick-off their Carabao Cup campaign against AFC Bournemouth tomorrow night (Tuesday 15th, 19:45 BST), hoping to build on their confident opening day victory against Southampton on Saturday.
The Eagles’ 1-0 win over the Saints saw them begin their Premier League season in the perfect manner, and Roy Hodgson’s Eagles will be hoping for more of the same on the south coast.
This clash against the Cherries is a unique way to start this year’s knock-out competitions, too, with Palace and Bournemouth having not faced once in a cup of any kind in 95 years.
