Crystal Palace defender Mitchell: Fans on fire for Man City

Crystal Palace defender Tyrick Mitchell insists they're capable of getting a result tonight against Manchester City.

The Eagles are winless in the Premier League since the start of the year but have claimed creditable points against the likes of Manchester United, Newcastle United, Brighton & Hove Albion and Liverpool in SE25.

Mitchell said of the visit of City: I think against any big team, you're going to have to compete your best, because if you don't then you're going to be in trouble against any team in the Premier League but especially against a bigger team.

It's something we know and something the fans know too. I feel like there's an extra bounce when you're playing the bigger teams and doing well against them. The stadium's on fire, so it just helps you get through the game either way.

[We next face] teams who are in-form this season, so it's definitely going to be a hard few games, but every game in the Premier League is hard, so we'll just train hard and be prepared for them."
