Roy Hodgson is facing a desperate dilemma as he prepares his Crystal Palace side for their third round FA Cup tie with Derby County this afternoon.

With Palace sitting pretty in the top half of the Premier League table, in any normal season they would be well worth a crack at a Cup run. Hodgson - who already operates with one of the division's smaller squads - however is hamstrung by the worst injury crisis he has faced in south London.

Mamadou Sakho is the latest to join the list, forced off with a hamstring problem at Norwich on New Year's Day, which now includes seven first team names.

Youngster Brandon Pierrick has been handed a chance to impress, but beyond that Hodgson doesn't have much to choose from.
