Quotes

Roy Hodgson

"It is going to be an extremely good occasion. I am really happy that it has fallen our way, that we happen to be the team that Tottenham are playing on the day.

"Whether it turns out to be advantageous in any way we just have to wait and see. I somewhat doubt it.

"I think Tottenham will be so anxious to do so well that we are going to see the very, very best Tottenham that you can see.

"So we will have to be the best Palace we can be to give them the sort of game we need to give them if we are going to get any points from it."

Mauricio Pochettino

"We need to be focused. It is one of the most important days in the history of the club but we must be focused because the three points are important too and it is going to be a tough game.

"Crystal Palace have good players and they are confident when they play against big sides. We can watch games when struggle when they need to be protagonists, but when they play on the counter-attack they have capacity to go forward with good players up front, like (Wilfried) Zaha and (Michy) Batshuayi.

"You cannot stop the atmosphere. Everyone who comes here is ready for a party. We need to deal with this energy."
