Crystal Palace out to spoil Tottenham party - Hodgson

Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson says his side will be out to spoil Tottenham's party on Wednesday night.

Spurs will host the Eagles in their first match at the brand new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Speaking at this pre-match press conference, Hodgson said: "It will be an extremely good occasion. The stadium being so well received by everybody does add pressure.

"I'd be surprised if Mauricio Pochettino is not saying the same as any manager, all games bring pressure. We're looking to make a mark ourselves."
