Excitement and nerves have definitely gone up a level this morning!!

We're on our way...

Does anyone know the latest on the injuries to Wharton and Richards?

Announced after pre match prezzer - usually about 1.00 lunch time. Not long to wait.

Whether OG is being wholly honest, though..?

Both took part in training this morning at Copers Cope.

My sons arrive first in the morning at Düsseldorf and then we will off in the car to car to Leipzig. I am so nervous today that I can hardly think straight. Much more so than last year 17th May, which I assume has something to do with the low expectations against Man. City. We just HAVE to win!!

Palace have just confirmed the squad that's travelling to Leipzig, Nketiah & Doucoure are among them . . .

Just watching a video of it on YouTube now. Both look fine and should be playing ☺️

Doesn't really help to guage who is actually fit/healthy. Seems like anybody that can walk is on the plane

I wonder if Neville Southall ever recovered from the disappointment ... I hope not

I remember the chanting “Where’s your medal, Neville” as he refused to wear his runners-up medal 😂😂

Wharton fine.

Richards touch and go.

Doucoure and Nketiah just along for the show.

Setting off about 0415 tomorrow morning. Definitely more nervous than FA cup final. I guess it must be because of higher expectations. I also think it is because it will certainly be a "once in a lifetime" event for me. Plus, chance to spend quality time with my son who has been assigned responsible adult status by my wife.

Relax everyone, we should be ok as I will be wearing exactly the same clothes as for the cup final and charity shield!

Anyone else doing superstitious stuff like that?

I suppose now we’ve had a taste of European football we want more and apart from winning the trophy, this decides whether we get to do it all again next season or not

Glasner on Wharton and Richards.
My guess (and hope) is that they will both start.

the Heat will certainly work to the advantage of the Spanish - especially in the last half hour. But hopefully the physicality of the English game will come as a nasty shock.

Looks like 21C at kick off - hopefully not an issue
