(Reuters) - Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson has warned Watford mascot Harry the Hornet not to provoke the crowd in Sunday's Premier League match at Vicarage Road and reignite diving claims that have surrounded Wilfried Zaha in the last two years.

Harry the Hornet dived on the pitch in front of Zaha after the Palace winger was booked for simulation during a 1-1 league draw at Watford on Boxing Day in 2016.
