Football Predictions
High-flying Tottenham Hotspur will be travelling to Selhurst Park on Friday night looking to consolidate their place at the top of the Premier League.
New manager Ange Postecoglou has revamped Spurs and he remains unbeaten where they have picked up 23 points from nine games. Monday’s 2-0 home win over Fulham confirmed Postecoglou’s record the best start of any manager in Premier League history.
While Spurs have been flying, Palace has struggled and they welcome their London rivals looking for just a second win since early September. The Eagles have been pretty lifeless so far this season, and a 4-0 hammering at Newcastle saw them drop to 11th in the table.
H2H / Stats
Crystal Palace wins: 13
Draws: 15
Tottenham wins: 35
Team News
The hosts will hope to have Jeffery Schlupp available after overcoming a thigh injury, while Matheus Franca is aiming to be fit enough for a place on the bench after an Under-21s run-out earlier in the week. Michael Olise and Eberchi Eze are still over a week away, along with Dean Henderson, James Tompkins and Nathan Ferguson.
For Spurs, Destiny Odogie and Pape Matar Sarr had to be substituted during Monday’s win over Fulham but Ange Postecoglou allayed any injury fears and both should be fit for Friday. Yves Bissouma is available after serving a one-game ban but may not be risked given he remains one yellow card away from another suspension and with Chelsea to come in the next game.
Probable Line Up
Crystal Palace XI: Johnstone (GK), Ward, Andersen, Guehi, Mitchell, Doucoure, Lerma, Hughes, Ayew, Mateta, Edouard
Tottenham XI: Vicario (GK), Udogie, van de Ven, Romero, Porro, Hojbjerg, Sarr, Richarlison, Maddison, Kulusevski, Son
Verdict
Palace might not be doing well in the league but Selhurst Park under the floodlights is a fixture to fear. They know a win is all they need to re-ignite their season but they are coming against a tricky Spurs side who are high in confidence. It will be a close contest but Spurs should carry the day.

Anytime Goalscorer
Son Heung-min✅
With seven goals and one assist, the South Korean is one of the most in-form attackers in the Premier League currently. His combination with summer signing James Madisson has torn defences and they are expected to combine again to find goals for the visitors on this day.
