Neil Warnock is backing his Crystal Palace side to go all the way and win the play-offs and promotion should they secure a spot in them on Sunday.

The Eagles go into Sunday's match with Burnley knowing a win will be good enough for them to extend the season by at least two more games, with Warnock believing they will go to Wembley and secure a return to the Premier League after a three-year absence.

"I think if we get in the play-offs we've got a great chance," he said.

"I don't think we fear anybody in the league. I think the hardest thing is going to be on Sunday getting in the play-offs. That's the hard part, it always is that final step.

"I think whoever finishes in that sixth position will have a great chance.

"It's just one of things, I think the other expectations above us have been for automatic promotion whereas I think ourselves and downwards I don't think anybody has been anywhere near automatic. It's a good battle."

Warnock also urged his players to enjoy the occasion on Sunday.

"If you look at the four clubs with us, chasing the play-offs, they should all be there. We've got to enjoy it while we've got the opportunity."

James Scowcroft and Carl Fletcher should return to the squad on Sunday, with Fletcher having missed last weekend's defeat at Hull with the birth of his daughter, while Scowcroft has struggled with a hamstring injury since playing Blackpool at the end of March.

Warnock said: "Hopefully Scowcroft and Fletcher will be in the squad this weekend. We didn't have any sort of options last week to match the physical aspect of Hull but those two are coming on well. Overall it's been a very satisfying few months for everyone."
