British media: Crystal Palace has applied to the Premier League, hoping to adjust the date of the game against Leeds United

November 6 According to British media talkSPORT, Crystal Palace has applied to the Premier League to adjust the date of its game against Leeds United next month.

Previously, the date of their League Cup quarter-finals with Arsenal was determined. Crystal Palace will go to the Emirates Stadium to challenge Arsenal on December 24, and on December 21, they will also face Leeds United in the league. In addition, Arsenal will also face Everton on December 21.

Previously, Arteta said that the team was looking to change the date of the match with Everton because "it is unreasonable to only have two days between the two games." Crystal Palace coach Glasner also confirmed at a press conference on Wednesday that they also hope to move the game against Leeds United to Saturday in order to gain more rest time for the players.

Currently, Crystal Palace faces the severe test of playing 5 games in 12 days, including UEFA, Premier League and League Cup games. If the game against Leeds United can be moved forward to December 20, it will be helpful to alleviate the team's schedule pressure.

However, since they will also face the Finnish team Kups on December 19, even adjusting the match date against Leeds United cannot completely solve the problem of an overly compact schedule.

Glasner said he hopes the relevant governing bodies can learn from this season's schedule issues and make improvements in the future: "I don't think the FA and the Premier League have resolved this issue before the start of the season, but they will learn from it and find solutions in the future."
