Potter expecting 'big derby' as Palace face Charlton

Women

28 Jan 2024

Lexi Potter is anticipating quite the occasion when Crystal Palace host Charlton Athletic in the Women's Championship on Sunday afternoon (14:00 GMT).

With the Eagles in fine form, and Palace men's team not in action this weekend, another rip-roaring atmosphere is expected at the VBS Community Stadium in Sutton for the visit of Palace's great rivals.

Matchday will once again offer up fun for all the family, with turnstiles open at 13:00 GMT. As the ultimate family day out, a family of four non-Members (two adults and two children) can take advantage of a group offer and buy their tickets for just £25. Season Ticket holders and Members can book online in advance at even lower prices.

And for those not able to attend, the match will be shown LIVE and FREE on Palace TV from 14:00; you need only register and login to your Palace account to watch!

Lexi looks ahead to tomorrow's South London Derby

“We’re really excited," Potter told Palace TV. "Obviously we lost on Wednesday [in the League Cup], so we want to bounce back and put things right. Sunday’s a really big game - a derby. We’re really excited.

“Obviously derbies are extra special, but it’s another big game and we just want to take three points and do as well as we can in our league. Charlton are a very good side and doing very well, so it’ll be a big game.

“When you do lose, you want to put things right and bounce back. We’re just treating it as another game. We want to win it.

“You want to do as well in the league as you possibly can, but we need to take each game step by step and see how well we can do. Getting three points every week is a good step towards that.

“The fans will play a big part. The fans play a big part in every game, but especially with it being a derby, they’ll be really important."
