It promises to be an exciting night for the north Londoners, but their preparations for the historic game have not been ideal.Tottenham have gone five games without victory in the Premier League, a horrible run of form which has erased their previously comfortable hold on a top-four spot.And while fans will be in the mood to party when they enter the gates of their new home, the players have been given a stark warning that they must not do the same.Speaking on Wednesdays Sports Breakfast, Dawson said: Its going to be an amazing night, a special night, but Tottenham cant just think theyre going to turn up and win.Its a great night for the Crystal Palace players too. Theyre going to be excited about playing at a brand new stadium. Its going to be an incredible atmosphere with a lot of excitement, but theyve got to realise they cant just turn up and think its going to be a party and enjoy it theyve got to go there and perform, because they need the three points badly!Sundays narrow defeat to Liverpoolhas seen Spurs slip to fourth place, level on points with Manchester United in fifth and only one point above Chelsea in sixth.Claiming their first win in six Premier League matches would see them climb back above rivals Arsenal into third and Dawson says they have no time to get comfortable to their new surroundings.You thought they were was guaranteed a Champions League place, about six weeks ago they were about ten points clear up there, but after picking up one point from 15, its made it really tight,” he added.It’s make-or-break time for Tottenham’s top-four bid2
It’s make-or-break time for Tottenham’s top-four bid
So they dont have time to find their feet, they have to hit the ground running. It can take time when a club moves to a new stadium, but Spurs dont have that time.If they do, theyre going to be out of the top four and not in the Champions League.But, Im confident they have enough quality to win tonight and get the three points.Listen back to Michael Dawson on the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast IN FULL above!
