Timber returns to Palace midfield for Hoffenheim clash
Pierre Sage makes three changes for tonight's Europa League game at Selhurst Park, with Timber back after four matches out and Kalembo, 16, on the bench.
Crystal Palace host TSG Hoffenheim tonight in the Europa League, at 17:45 GMT at Selhurst Park, with Pierre Sage making three changes according to the club's official website:
- Quinten Timber returns to the heart of midfield after four matches out, and Daichi Kamada is pushed further forward.
- Anan Khalaili comes in on the right for Óscar Mingueza, who drops to the bench.
- Honest Ahanor replaces Axel Disasi in central defence, and Dwight McNeil moves to the bench.
The rest of the XI is the same one that lost at Tottenham on Saturday, a match in which Palace played almost all of it with ten men. Among the substitutes is Nat Kalembo, who turned 16 last week and is named in a senior matchday squad for the first time.
For Hoffenheim, Christian Ilzer makes two changes after the defeat at Werder Bremen: the injured Adam Hložek and Adam Daghim come off, and Alexander Prass and Tim Lemperle come in.
