Crystal Palace v Tottenham Match Preview

Crystal Palace v Tottenham – Bet Builder, Tips and Predictions

28 Dec – 16:30 | Premier League
Venue: Selhurst Park


Crystal Palace v Tottenham Preview

Crystal Palace head into Sunday’s London derby under mounting pressure after failing to win any of their last four matches in all competitions. Draws with KuPS in the UEFA Conference League and Arsenal in the EFL Cup have been accompanied by heavy Premier League defeats to Manchester City (3-0) and Leeds United (4-1), halting the momentum Oliver Glasner’s side had previously built.

Before this downturn, Palace had enjoyed a strong spell with three consecutive wins, including important league victories over Burnley (1-0) and Fulham (2-1). Returning to Selhurst Park could prove pivotal, as the Eagles have generally been more resilient at home and will be keen to re-establish their defensive discipline.

Tottenham Hotspur arrive in south London looking to avoid a third straight Premier League defeat after being comprehensively beaten 3-0 by Nottingham Forest and losing 2-1 at home to Liverpool. The broader picture is equally concerning for Spurs, who have managed just two wins in their last nine matches across all competitions, alongside five defeats.

Injuries, suspensions and inconsistency have disrupted Tottenham’s rhythm, and while their attacking quality remains evident, defensive lapses have proven costly. This matchup against a Palace side desperate for a response feels finely balanced and could hinge on which team steadies the ship first.

Crystal Palace v Tottenham Prediction

This London derby looks set to be competitive and potentially open. Both sides are struggling for consistency but still possess attacking threats, while defensive absences suggest chances at both ends. Selhurst Park could tilt the balance slightly in Palace’s favour, but goals for both teams look likely.
