Palace’s game against Arsenal will be their last domestic league game of 25/26, before they depart for Leipzig for the UEFA Conference League Final.
Lacroix is looking forward to that challenge, nothing: “We want to achieve, this season, another trophy.
"It's going to be a tough game [against Rayo Vallecano], of course – but I think everyone will push us to win this trophy.
“I think it's because we are not only teammates, we are brothers. And brothers fight for each other, you know? So when you play on the field and you want to give everything for your guys, your brothers, I think it's also easier in your head.
“It's another mentality, I think. And like I said, last year, we spoke a lot about this group, about how we were really together.
"I think first, from day one, we had no problems. We just did our job together.”
