WATCH: Van Aanholt previews 'tough' Spurs match

Ahead of this evening's clash away to Tottenham Hotspur, Crystal Palace's Patrick van Aanholt has spoken with cautious confidence about his side's chances against an out of form Lilywhites.

The Palace left-back will be buoyed by his recent goal against Huddersfield Town, with Roy Hodgson saying he is 'pleased' with the Dutchman.

But however buoyed he may be and however pleased his manager is, Van Aanholt was keen to state in an interview with Premier League Productions that Palace are facing a battle this evening.

He remarked: "Spurs is a top team so they don't need many chances to score goals.
