Millwall's head coach Alex Neil embraces the challenge of facing Premier League team Crystal Palace in the FA Cup fifth round. The Lions aim to reach the quarter-finals for the first time since 2018-19 after their impressive victory against Leeds United. Neil is optimistic about the match, noting the strength of their previous performance and hoping for a similar display. Despite acknowledging the challenge ahead, he prioritizes the game while being mindful of recent match fatigue. Neil sees this matchup as an important yardstick for measuring his team's growth.
This game will be of a similar ilk I think. It will be a high-quality game with good players on the pitch and hopefully we can do ourselves justice.
It’s a great game for us, we know they’re a really good side. We know we’re going to have to put a really strong performance in if we want to try and get a result.
