Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has described the "electric" atmosphere he will be expecting when his team play their first game at Spurs' new stadium on Wednesday night.
Spurs welcome London rivals Crystal Palace to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, after months of delays regarding the new ground.
But, putting the new stadium situation to the side, it's a huge game for Spurs, who have seen their form drop off in recent weeks.
Subsequently, North London rivals Arsenal have leapfrogged them in the Premier League, into third-place - with Spurs now fourth.
Two months ago, Spurs were 10 points clear of the Gunners, but a win against Palace is needed to overtake their fierce rivals.
"I'm just excited for tomorrow now," Kane told Sky Sports News on Tuesday. "We trained here last week and to have that feeling of being back here is special. It's been a long while.
"The send-off at White Hart Lane was emotional but now we are here and I know the atmosphere is going to be electric.
"Walking out of that tunnel and into the new stadium is going to be a dream. Most importantly, we have to get the right result but it's going to be a special occasion.
"I said it last week when we were training, there are little bits that catch your eye and you think 'wow - that was the old White Hart Lane'.
"It's obviously built on where the old one was and there were a lot of good memories there. It's down to us to make some new ones.
"It's definitely up there (with the best stadium in the world). When you look around it and take in the surroundings, it's brand-new which definitely helps. We've got to try and make it a historic stadium by getting some trophies."
