This is a huge game. Bigger than the City game now. If we mess up, we could undo the advantages of Sunday's win. On the other hand, City are playing Chelsea so there's a possibility of increasing the gap between us and City.

It will be tough. Away to Palace always is... and Roy will get almost two solid weeks with his players to prepare just for our game. I'm not sure how many of our players are away on intnl duty but I guess Klopp won't have the same luxury as Roy.

Banana skin written all over it... so we need to focus and be prepared. A win at Palace will maintain the gap and start to put pressure on the chasing pack as we head into the busy period.

I dont understand how this can be bigger than the City game which is like a 6 pointer, ie, we winning 3 points and our closest rival losing 3. That said, very important that we keep the momentum

Because it's a game that hasn't already been played of course.

They are all huge games now!

Hopefully Salah & Robbo are back fit, same for the rest of the international players.

Zaha is the big threat, so we need to keep him quiet.

Given that we could be without Salah, Robertson and who knows who else, this fixture takes on a real banana skin factor, sure enough. It'll be a nervous ten or so days between now and then, hoping we don't lose any more key players.

But we have Origi and Robertson should be back I think
