Everton boss Frank Lampard expects pelters from Tottenham's fans as a former Chelsea player – but he believes it will be worse for assistant coach Ashley Cole.
Rivalries will be renewed on Monday night when Lampard and former Arsenal defender Cole arrive in north London.
It is nothing Lampard cannot cope with, however.
“I don't expect a good reception – but speaking to Ashley Cole he expects a worse reception than me!" he said.
“It's all good fun, I always enjoyed the battles with Tottenham as a Chelsea player and West Ham player before that.
“But it's not part of my thinking, I'm actually not even considering the games I've played with or managed at Chelsea – it's a completely different position.
“You have to take the sting out of the opposition wherever you go, the focal point has to be us."
