Going away from home might present a little less pressure as the Tricky Trees try to keep their surprising season standing tall. Palace's players are playing for places in the FA Cup final starting lineup and won't be anonymous.

Steve: To be honest, Palace could and should have won the game. Forest created very little and their equaliser was a rather fortunate deflection. It was a poor goal for Palace to give away after just taking the lead. If they take their chances, Spurs away is a great opportunity for getting three more points closer to that 50-point target.

LONDON — Nottingham Forest drew with Crystal Palace 1-1 in the Premier League on Monday and saw its Champions League hopes fade. Nuno Espírito Santo’s men have spent most of the year in the league top three but a run of one win in four has dropped them behind Chelsea, Newcastle and a resurgent Manchester City.
