Gtech Community Stadium, the venue for this fixture, has been the home of Brentford FC since 2020.
The Bees left Griffin Park after 106 years of playing their home games there, but their new 17,250-seater ground ultimately gave Brentford the top-flight status they had long craved for.
In the 2022/23 season, there was an average attendance of 17,067 at this ground. Have a look at the Gtech Community Stadium seating plan when deciding on the best seats for Brentford home games.
## Brentford vs Crystal Palace History
The first-ever meeting between these fellow London clubs was in the 1907 FA Cup. Crystal Palace won the replay of this Third Round tie by a single goal to nil.
Up until the end of the 2022/23 season, neither of these clubs had won a first major trophy. Palace were runners-up of the FA Cup in 1990 and again in 2016, losing to Manchester United in both finals at Wembley.
Just 18 km separates Gtech Community Stadium from Selhurst Park, home of Crystal Palace. There are also several players who have played for both these teams.
•England defender Tyrick Mitchell played in the Brentford junior teams until switching to the Crystal Palace Academy in 2016.
•Jeffrey Schlupp joined Brentford in 2011, on loan from Leicester City, and the Ghana international signed for Palace on a long-term deal in 2017.
•John Salako amassed more than 200 appearances for the Eagles. The ex-midfielder spent the 2004/05 season at Brentford before bringing his playing career to an end. In 2009, Salako returned to Palace as a junior coach.
Brentford vs Crystal Palace Head-to-Head
These sides met in the 1956/57 FA Cup and two decades later in the 1977/78 League Cup; both times Palace were victorious.
The 2021/22 Premier League season was the first in which the Bees and the Eagles contested a league fixture since 1964, as well as their first-ever clash in the top division of England.
Both of those games ended goalless and the teams played out another pair of draws in 2022/23, both league fixtures ending 1-1.
In the early stages of the 2023/24 campaign, Brentford and Palace met and, again, there was no winner at Gtech Community Stadium. This was the first time the first five meetings between two teams in the Premier League had all ended level.
