Preview: Crystal Palace vs Tottenham Hotspur

Crystal Palace play host to Tottenham Hotspur this Saturday for a 17.30 kick-off, having typically struggled against the Lillywhites in recent years.

For this match, however, the Eagles have been recently buoyed by their last result against north London’s other major power, a 2-2 draw with Arsenal.

Palace have had a hit-and-miss season so far but have played resolutely in recent weeks, having also trained hard in preparation to face the visiting Spurs.

Mauricio Pochettino's side played PSV Eindhoven on Tuesday, beating them 2-1 in the Champions League Group Stage.

Team news

Palace frontman Connor Wickham will not feature as Palace's available squad remains unchanged from last Sunday's game against Chelsea while Tottenham are without midfielders Victor Wanyama and Eric Dier as well as defenders Danny Rose and Jan Vertonghen.
