Speaking in his pre-match press conference, Roy Hodgson said captain Luka Milivojevic may be fit to face Tottenham Hotspur this weekend, after the Serbian missed Crystal Palace's game with Wolverhampton Wanderers.
"The only one who may have a chance is Luka," Hodgson said. "He missed training yesterday and trained today. We’ll wait and see if there’s any reaction to the knee when we get together tomorrow."
The Palace manager also confirmed that James Tomkins will not be ready to play on Sunday, and that Mamadou Sakho is also sidelined for the foreseeable future.
He said: "Mamadou Sakho of course is out for a period of time so we’ll be without a large number of first-teamers.
