Published on: 08 May 2017

Crystal Palace boss Sam Allardyce says their match with Hull City is bigger than any Cup final.

Palace are just four points above the bottom three after being thrashed 5-0 by Manchester City on Saturday.

They can secure their Premier League status with a draw against Hull at Selhurst Park and Allardyce said: “The game is bigger than a cup final.

“Because at stake is everyone's status in the Premier League.

“You are part of one of the biggest sporting brands in the world. It keeps the club buoyant and the south London area active and live.

“So it is a massive game for us all, and our players have to hold their nerve and produce a massive performance."
