Crystal Palace vs Tottenham Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Lilywhites will be aiming for consecutive Derby wins here. 

Crystal Palace are set to take on Tottenham Hotspur in their 66th London Derby at Selhurst Park aiming to end their three games winless streak. It will be an intriguing battle between two teams who are desperate to make a mark this season. 

Crystal Palace have endured a tough start to the campaign gathering only three points from the starting eight games. Oliver Glasner who made an excellent start to his Crystal Palace is feeling the heat in his first full season with the club. The Eagles have lost three consecutive games in a row and will be hoping to turn the table in the upcoming games after finding themselves in the 18th position. 

Tottenham Hotspur on the other hand have made a decent start bouncing back in the last couple of games after a tough start to the season. Ange Postecoglou’s team currently finds themselves in the seventh position in the table after registering three victories in the last four games. They have also made a good start to their Europa League tenure winning all the three games they have played so far.

Players to Watch

Eberechi Eze (Crystal Palace)

Despite failing to get on the score sheet on a regular basis this season, Eberechi Eze remains the player to watch out for in this game as can be the game-changer for them with his excellent vision, playmaking abilities and also chipping in with goals at the same time. Eze is a hard-working player who works tirelessly for the team and also helps the team in the transition from defense to attack. 

Son Heung-min (Tottenham)

Son Heung-min has returned to the team in excellent form after missing a few games due to an injury. He made his return to the lineup against West Ham in the previous games where he scored a beautiful goal after doing a couple of stepovers to curl a shot to the corner. It was mesmerising to watch Son in this mood as he can be unstoppable at times.
