Palace duo ready to play following Paris attacks

Crystal Palace duo Martin Kelly and Yohan Cabaye will both be available for selection following the tragic events last Friday in Paris.

Full back, Kelly, was within walking distance of one of the co-ordinated attacks in Paris, whilst French midfielder Cabaye was a late substitute in the game at the Stade De France.

Kelly and his girlfriend returned back to London safely following their short break to the French capital. The defender has returned back to training and feels he is ready to play, but admits he was shaken up by the events that occurred last Friday.

Cabaye has since returned to action with his national team in their 2-0 defeat at Wembley on Tuesday night.

Scott Dann was also in Paris last weekend, but fortunately was not in a part of the city that was hit. Dann, alongside Kelly and Cabaye is fit and ready to play against Sunderland on Monday.

Alan Pardew’s side will be looking to build on their win at Liverpool before the international break, with back to back home games against Sunderland and Newcastle, respectively.
