Tottenham v Crystal Palace

• Spurs have drawn more fouls than any other team in the Premier League this season (13.2 per game)

• Both teams are in poor form, with just one win for each side in their last seven in the league

• Over 2.5 goals have been scored in six of the last eight meetings between these two

Crystal Palace travel to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this Sunday to take on a Spurs side that will be riding high after booking their place in the Europa League final - their first major final appearance since 2019.

While the cup run has sparked excitement among the Spurs faithful, both teams have struggled for consistency in the Premier League, especially recently. Tottenham sit 16th and Palace just eight points in front of them in 12th, they've massively dropped off in the last few weeks with little left to fight for. However, both sides will be keen to finish the season on a positive note and restore some pride.

⭐ Tottenham v Crystal Palace Predictions and Best Bets

Tottenham draw more fouls than any other team in the Premier League, averaging 13.2 per game, well ahead of Palace’s 10.78. The Eagles also rank higher in disciplinary charts, picking up 2.1 cards per game compared to Spurs’ 1.8. With Spurs likely to dominate possession and draw more contact, Palace could find themselves on the wrong side of the referee more often that their opponents. Odds of 2.20 offer nice value.

At 3.60, the draw looks like a good bet considering both teams' recent league form. Palace have drawn three consecutive matches, and Spurs shared the points last weekend at West Ham.

With just one win in their last nine league games, Tottenham’s focus may be waning, especially as they recover from a midweek Europa League semi-final. Palace, who have just one win in their last seven, appear content to coast toward the end of the season, with their eyes set on an FA Cup final with Man City later this month.

⚪ Spurs' League Form Continues to Slump

Tottenham Hotspur's domestic season has been very underwhelming, with the team currently positioned 16th in the Premier League, having lost 19 games this year. They've won just one of their last nine, and even their attack, which has carried them all year, has started to show signs of stagnation, with output being massively reduced recently.

Despite their struggles in the league, Spurs have found solace in European competition, securing a spot in the Europa League final after a commanding 5-1 aggregate victory over Bodo/Glimt.

Manager Ange Postecoglou has faced constant criticism for the team's league performance, but the European run has provided enough for him to keep his job for now. As they prepare to face Crystal Palace, Spurs will aim to carry their European momentum into domestic play and finish the season on a positive note.

🔵 Palace's Tough Run

After a strong run of form in the middle of the season, Crystal Palace have hit a rough patch in recent weeks. A difficult run of fixtures has played a part, but the team also appears to have lost some of its intensity.

They’ve conceded 13 goals in their last five matches, failing to win any of them and drawing their last three. With a comfortable mid-table finish all but secured and little left to fight for, there’s a sense that the squad may be easing off as the season winds down. Palace's focus is almost certainly on their upcoming FA Cup final against Man City, which is understandable.

📊 Tottenham v Crystal Palace Head-to-Head Key Stats

The last meeting between Tottenham and Crystal Palace ended in a narrow 1-0 win for Palace. It was a tight, feisty encounter, featuring eight yellow cards and 16 corners, with Palace registering seven shots on target.

Recent clashes between the sides have tended to be open affairs, each of the last five meetings has seen 11 or more corners, and over 3+ goals have been scored in six of the last eight.

Notably, Spurs have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last three matches against the Eagles, highlighting Palace’s recent success in finding the net against them.
