Oliver Glasner delivers Crystal Palace injury news ahead of Aston Villa FA Cup semi-final clash

Oliver Glasner says Crystal Palace came through Wednesday night’s 2-2 draw at Arsenal unscathed ahead of tomorrow’s FA Cup semi-final clash against Aston Villa.

The Eagles boss has also been able to add Ben Chilwell back to his squad after the Chelsea loanee missed the trip to north London through illness. 

Palace are looking to reach the FA Cup final for the third time in their history and will be without just long-term absentees Cheick Doucoure and Chadi Riad.

Glasner said: “Ben Chilwell is back and fit [after his illness]. So, we have everyone available.

“Everyone is in a good mood and looking forward to it. Of course, playing a semi-final is always great. We’ve done really well in the cup competition until now.

“It’s a huge game at Wembley, we’re looking forward to it and the goal is to win tomorrow and to go through to final.

“They (Aston Villa) are in great shape – they have eight wins out of the last ten. It’s a game – I don’t want to make it bigger than it is. But we’re ready.”
