Latest Crystal Palace vs Tottenham team news
Tottenham's sharpness has been diminished by the absence of captain Son Heung-min due to injury sustained in the win against West Ham. Postecoglou confirmed Son will not return for Sunday's game, leading to a battle for the left-back position between Timo Werner, Mikey Moore and Wilson Odobert. In addition to Son, Djed Spence is also absent, while James Maddison and Destiny Udogie are the only two players who retained their places in the midweek starting lineup.
Crystal Palace also have fitness issues with Chadi Riad, Chris Richards and Matheus Franca unavailable. Cheick Doucoure will also be out of action after recovering from an ankle injury. Matt Turner, the former Arsenal goalkeeper, will return to the squad but will be on the bench.
Eddie Nketiah, if he plays, will need to end his goalless streak, as he hasn't scored in the Premier League for almost a year since his hat-trick in October 2023.

Latest Crystal Palace vs Tottenham football match preview
Tottenham secured their third Europa League victory with a 1-0 win over AZ Alkmaar thanks to a confident second-half penalty from Richarlison. While Spurs could have won by a larger margin, they recently staged an impressive comeback to beat West Ham 4-1 in the Premier League. Ange Postecoglou's side currently sit seventh in the table, just four points behind Champions League qualification spots, but only three points ahead of Brentford.
Under Postecoglou's leadership, Tottenham have scored in all four of their recent away games. Crystal Palace, conversely, are struggling in attack, with only a single goal from Chris Wood in their defeat against Nottingham Forest, marking their third consecutive loss. Currently, Palace sit 18th and are one of four teams yet to win a Premier League match this season.
The home side can only take some consolation in the fact that two of their three points this season have come from Selhurst Park, but they have failed to score in three of their four home Premier League games in the 2024-25 season. With just two goals at home, their attacking record is the worst in the league. The head-to-head history also doesn't favor Palace, as they have lost all five of their most recent encounters against Tottenham, who followed up their 2-1 win at Selhurst Park with a 3-1 victory at home last season.
Although Tottenham struggled to find attacking sharpness against AZ, Postecoglou fielded a reserve team and rested key players should have no trouble teaching Palace a football lesson. With Jean-Philippe Mateta out of form, Eberechi Eze struggling to regain his shape, and Michael Olise gone, Glasner's side have yet to find a Plan B in attack and will certainly continue to wait for a win.
