Match Preview

Zrinjski Mostar’s five-match unbeaten streak was snapped in their latest outing, a heavy defeat away to Borac Banja Luka on February 14, which also halted Borac's own momentum. 

The Bosnian giants now rely on the raucous support at Stadion pod Bijelim Brijegom and their strong home form to seize a vital first-leg edge against Crystal Palace.

However, Palace arrive as a wounded side after their two-match unbeaten run in the Premier League ended in a dramatic home defeat to Burnley on February 11.

Despite the setback, the Eagles possess superior quality, depth, and European experience to overcome Mostar and claim a positive away result.

Injuries, key stats

Meanwhile, Crystal Palace players Jean-Philippe Mateta, Eddie Nketiah, Cheick Doucouré, Rio Cardines, Daichi Kamada, Chadi Riad, and Caleb Kporha are unavailable due to injuries, while no players are reported suspended for this tie.

The upcoming game marks the first competitive encounter between the Bosnian side and the Premier League club.

Step-by-step VPN guide to watch Zrinjski Mostar vs Crystal Palace today

NordVPN

1. Download & Install: Sign up to ExpressVPN or another reputable VPN service (check out GOAL's guide here) and download the app on your device.
2. Connect to a Server: Open the app and select a server location where the match is being shown (e.g. if you are in the UK but want to watch a US stream, connect to a US server).

How to watch on the Big Screen

Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belong on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:

• Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
• Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don't support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
