Crystal Palace will spend the night before their trip to Everton in a secret location in a bid to avoid the prospect of being disturbed by fireworks let off by supporters, according to reports.
The Blues will face Patrick Vieira's side at Goodison Park on Thursday evening with the Merseyside club desperate to secure the three points that will ensure their Premier League safety. Prior to Everton's last two home games, opponents Chelsea and Brentford were subjected to a sustained firework display in the middle of the night, immediately next to the hotels where the teams were staying.
And according to the Mail, with Frank Lampard's side fighting for their top flight existence, Palace are not prepared to take any chances with their pre-match preparations. The report claims that on Monday, Palace chiefs have been hastily changing their arrangements to stay in an unnamed hotel outside of Merseyside on Wednesday evening before travelling into the county for the match the next day.
