Crystal Palace v Tottenham (20:00 BST)

Crystal Palace face an injury crisis in defence after James Tomkins suffered a serious ankle injury in the win at Liverpool that could end his season.

Fellow centre-back Scott Dann remains sidelined after missing three weeks with a knee ligament problem.

There are no new injury concerns for Tottenham, who have Danny Rose back in training following nearly three months out with ligament damage.

Michel Vorm is recovering from a knee injury and could return in May.

Crystal Palace manager Sam Allardyce: "We needed that (run) to get ourselves out of trouble, but we're still not mathematically out of trouble.

"It shows great fight and desire from the players to get ourselves out of that predicament.

"They've grasped it in the end superbly well and done an outstanding job.

"It has to be one of the best run of results in the long career I've had as a manager in the Premier League."

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino on whether his players lack a winning mentality: "We start to compete in the last two seasons.

"Last season we finished third, the best place in the Premier League for Tottenham, now we are second and fighting with the big sides with a completely different project.

"The mentality is fantastic - to win always. But when you compete with Chelsea, Man United, Man City, Liverpool - come on.

"The players deserve full credit and (you should) remove that idea because it's not true. They are winners. Another thing is to win titles, but they are winners."
