Crystal Palace midfielder Barry Bannan knows their clash with Norwich City on New Year's Day will be decisive.
Only goal difference presently keeps them on the right side of the drop zone.
"The next game is massive," said Bannan.
"We will be judged on the games against the teams who are around us and Norwich at home is one we expect to get something from.
"With the home crowd behind us and the confidence we have in the squad at the minute we have every reason to look forward with confidence."
