Crystal Palace manager Paul Hart says he will not underestimate West Brom when they visit Selhurst Park on Monday.

The Baggies have already clinched second place in the Championship and promotion and have nothing left to fight for.

Hart though fully expects them to come out all guns blazing and does not think they will take things easy.

"We have to think they will play their strongest side and they are coming to win the game," he said.

"It would be foolish to approach it in any other way.

"It's on television as well and in my experience people generally want to impress more when it is on television.

"We have to focus on what we do though and not think about anyone else."

With relegation rivals Sheffield Wednesday and Watford playing on Saturday, Palace will know before they kick off against West Brom what they will have to do to boost their survival hopes.

If Wednesday lose against Cardiff City at the weekend, then victory against West Brom would guarantee Palace safety and Hart believes that knowledge is a big advantage for his players.

"Playing Monday gives us a heads up so we will know what we need to do," he said.

"Wednesday play Cardiff on Saturday and I will be listening to the radio as I normally do to hear how they are getting on.

"As long as results go for us we will know what we need to do to avoid relegation."
