Preview

Spurs come into this on two straight league wins, the latest a 2-0 at Chelsea. Palace sit 17th with seven points and lost 2-0 at home to Newcastle last weekend, after a 5-0 defeat at Brighton. Pierre Sage bought some breathing room on Wednesday: with ten changes, his side won 1-0 at Fulham in the Carabao Cup, Eddie Nketiah scoring and Dean Henderson making his first start since early September. That rotation means his first-choice players should be fresh. Palace concede 2.25 goals per away game. Spurs have their own doubts. James Maddison went off at Chelsea and is a doubt, Destiny Udogie was still unavailable with a knee problem last week, and Rodrigo Bentancur is listed as suspended. Xavi Simons, Wilson Odobert, Mykhailo Mudryk and Savio are all listed out. Palace have a doubt over Ismaila Sarr's groin. History is a warning: Palace won three of the last five meetings, including the last two at Spurs. The doubts on both sides roughly cancel out, so we rate the home win at 62%.
