Maxence Lacroix revealed that Crystal Palace is confident and hopes to capitalize on their recent good form to challenge the top two teams in the Premier League last season in consecutive away games. The team will travel to league-leading Arsenal on Sunday, followed by a midweek trip to Liverpool for the Carabao Cup. It's worth noting that Crystal Palace has already defeated Liverpool twice this season.  

Although Crystal Palace are winless in three games and even suffered a heavy defeat against AEK Larnaca, they created enough chances in each match to potentially win.  

Following the defeat at Selhurst Park, Maxence Lacroix said: "I'm sure everyone is disappointed, but I think we showed our ability to create a lot of chances, so it's better to focus on the positives from the game. Congratulations to AEK Larnaca, they managed to execute their tactics successfully."  

"However, I think this defeat reminds us that we must improve our level and show greater attacking precision and goal efficiency, so that the game will go more smoothly. We remain humble, but we must be more decisive in front of the goal, score as early as possible and not give the opponent any chances. This is just a small step towards improvement."  

“I think we created enough chances but couldn’t score. I hope we can score against Arsenal and Liverpool. As I said, we are a little disappointed with the results, but we always look to the future and I’m sure the next games will be exciting.”  

"We will regroup and aim to win every game. Every time we go out there we want to show we can beat any opponent."  

"Finally, I would like to express my sincere congratulations to the fans for their support until the end of the game. I think the upcoming games will be at the top level in Europe. I am sure everyone is happy to see the team perform in the European arena, and I also believe that we have the opportunity to win other games."
