Tottenham vs Crystal Palace Preview, prediction, injury news & lineups | Premier League 2026-27

The Eagles have three wins in the last four encounters against the Lilywhites!

Tottenham Hotspur are now gearing up for their matchweek 9 fixture of the English Premier League 2026-27 season. They will have a face-off against Crystal Palace at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in what can turn out to be an entertaining clash.

With a 2-0 victory against Chelsea in their last league outing, Roberto De Zerbi’s men are on a two-match winning run in the English top division. They would like to keep their momentum alive. Spurs will be looking to come up with yet another top performance.

For their upcoming contest, Tottenham Hotspur will be at home. They must use those conditions to their advantage. The Lilywhites are now in 14th place on the points table.

On the other hand, the Pierre Sage-led side have now suffered consecutive defeats in their last two Premier League games. Even though the Eagles are coming after knocking out Fulham from the Carabao Cup, they are going to be under pressure for their next one.

Being away from home is going to be another disadvantage for Crystal Palace. They have lacked consistency and are placed 17th on the league table at the moment.
