Tottenham News and Form – Can Spurs beat the Eagles again?
There has been some less than perfect form from Spurs this season. They have muddled their way to a W1 D2 L1 record and with that lack of consistency, it’s only going to get tougher with the Champions League starting up next week. Tottenham’s only EPL win so far happened in their opening game of the campaign when they came from behind to beat Aston Villa. Their one defeat was a bit of a shocker when they lost 1-0 against Newcastle in a major upset.
Three of Tottenham’s four games this season have ended over 2.5 goals. Their last eight home games against Crystal Palace though have ended under 2.5 goals. Five of the six goals they have conceded in this seasons top-flight have come before the half time break in fixtures. Spurs have been trailing at half time in three of their four games, conceding the opening goal in three of their four played as well. Tottenham though have been drawing at half time and winning at full time in 6 of their last 7 against Crystal Palace.

Crystal Palace News and Form – Can Crystal Palace win at Spurs?
The Eagles have very little form going at Spurs. They have not only failed to score in six of their last seven visits there, but they have lost six of their last seven road fixtures against the Lilywhites. Crystal Palace have recorded an away win against one of the big six already this season though. That was a 2-1 victory at Old Trafford that they came up with, against Manchester United. Following that they beat Aston Villa 1-0 at home, so that’s back to back wins in a W2 D1 L1 record this season.
Their one loss happened away from Selhurst Park, that was a 1-0 reverse at Bramall Lane against Sheffield United. All but one of the five goals that have appeared in the league games of Crystal Palace this season have come in the second half of games. Crystal Palace have picked up a win in six of their last eight Premier League away games (L2). That is an impressive sequence of road form. However one of the losses in that sequence did come against Spurs at the back end of last season. This season’s top scorer for Palace is Jordan Ayew with two goals.
