Crystal Palace fans were caught up in clashes in Leipzig a day before their Conference League final.
Footage posted on social media appears to show Palace fans outside a bar in the German city on Tuesday evening.
A large group of men dressing in black t-shirts are also spotted arriving at their location before it all kicked off.
Chairs and punches were thrown between the two groups, and police had to intervene in the chaos.
People sitting outside other bars just yards away from the violence began to retreat whilst more men in black t-shirts turned up.
More chairs were thrown amid the noise of smashing glasses around them before police, armed with batons, pushed the large group back.
It’s unclear as to who initiated the clash in Leipzig.
Palace and Rayo Vallecano are both looking to win the Conference League for the first time, with the match coming live on talkSPORT.
The Eagles are eyeing their first ever European trophy and victory will also see them earn a spot in next season’s Europa League.
It’s the only way they can confirm Europe for next season as they finished 15th in the Premier League.
How did Palace reach the final?
Palace were due to play in the Europa League this season thanks to their FA Cup win in May 2025.
However, they were relegated to the Conference League after falling foul of UEFA’s multi-club ownership rules.
Former co-owner John Textor also owns Lyon, who finished sixth in the French Ligue 1 and qualified for the Europa League.
UEFA’s rules prevent multiple teams owned by an individual from competing in the same European competition.
Palace could have circumnavigated the rules with proof of multi-club ownership restructuring, but missed the March 1, 2025 deadline.
They also tried to argue that Textor had no decisive influence, but to no avail.
Palace finished 10th in the Conference League league phase and then beat Zrinjski Mostar in the knockout round play-offs.
Wins against AEK Larnaca, Fiorentina and Shakhtar Donetsk from the quarter-finals onwards confirmed their spot in Wednesday’s final.
