Tottenham vs Crystal Palace Prediction


Palace won both meetings against Tottenham last season, at home by 1-0 and on the road by 2-0, but Tottenham has won the five meetings before that. Both teams to score – no is 6-2 in their last 8 meetings.

In this Tottenham vs Crystal Palace Prediction, Crystal Palace is coming as +115 home favorite. Palace has 4 more points this season but has been weaker at home, with just two of their seven wins coming at home this season. On the flip side, Tottenham has been good on the road, with 4 wins and two draws in 8 road games. Palace has been winless in its last four games across all competitions, including their last four home games, so I expect the guests to keep this one close. Take Tottenham by +0.5 goals in this one.
