Eagles boss on Olise and Eze
The Austrian was full of praise for Palace's dynamic duo Olise and Eze, suggesting their dribbling ability and link-up play could cause Erik Ten Hag's side plenty of problems.
"If they play like against West Ham, yes, I think we have an attack to fear," Glasner said with a smile when asked about the English pair's qualities by Sky Sports.
"They are good individual players with excellent dribbling, but they can also combine together brilliantly. They certainly know how to use their strengths."

Olise and Eze have hit form at the right time, providing goals and creativity in recent weeks as Palace have climbed away from relegation danger.
Glasner would be excited to unleash them on the big stage against one of the Premier League's elite clubs.
Olise has seven goals and four assists this season, while Eze has weighed in with eight goals and three assists in an injury-disrupted campaign.
If they can continue their red-hot form, Palace's talented young forwards could make life very difficult for United's rearguard.
For Glasner, it's the perfect opportunity to lay down an early marker and show his reign at Selhurst Park will be an entertaining one with attacking flair at its core.
