Clinton Morrison

Crystal Palace begin this season's FA Cup campaign with the visit of Northampton to Selhurst Park.

Clinton Morrison will miss the game through suspension after getting a fifth booking but Dougie Freedman is likely to replace the Irish international in attack.

Jon Macken is back from his ban after getting sent off against Ipswich on Boxing Day and will probably start on the bench.

Marco Reich (foot), Danny Butterfield (pelvis), Danny Granville (knee) and Aki Riihilahti (calf and hamstring) are all sidelined.

Northampton's Martin SMITH, Dave Rowson, Gavin Johnson, RYAN Gilligan, Ashley Westwood and Fred Murray are injured. Jason Crowe faces a fitness test on a foot injury.
