Tottenham Hotspur vs Crystal Palace Prediction, Preview & Betting Tips

Tottenham Hotspur face Crystal Palace in what will be an entertaining contest at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Crystal Palace actually sit eight points above Tottenham in the league standings and even won the last head-to-head clash between these two sides back in late October when Jean-Philippe Mateta scored the only goal of the game. The Frenchman will be vital for the Eagles here, as he has fired in 14 goals in 32 Premier League appearances this campaign.

The Lilywhites have only won six of their 17 home league games this season. Ange Postecoglou’s men are known for playing calamitous football, as despite scoring 34 goals at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium during those matches, they have also conceded 29 times. It will be to no surprise that the Both Teams to Score market has landed in four of Tottenham’s last five matches, something we expect to be repeated here.

Prediction: Tottenham Hotspur 1-2 Crystal Palace

Tottenham Hotspur goes head-to-head with Crystal Palace in a battle between 16th and 12th in the Premier League.

Date: 11/05/2025

Location: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Time: 2:15pm

As previously mentioned, the last head-to-head encounter between these two sides resulted in a 1-0 win to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park back on 27th October.

Spurs’ Premier League season has been a disaster as they sit 16th in the table with 38 points from 35 matches, however, their one chance of salvation is the UEFA Europa League, as they will face Manchester United in the final of that competition in Bilbao, with it effectively being a straight shoot out for Champions League football.

In the Europa League, Ange Postecoglou’s side managed to progress past Bodo/Glimt in the semi-finals (5-1 on aggregate) after beating Eintracht Frankfurt (2-1) and AZ Alkmaar (3-2) in the knockout stages following a fourth-place finish in the Group Stage.

On the other hand, Crystal Palace have an FA Cup final to look forward to, with Oliver Glasner’s men set to play Manchester City at Wembley Stadium on 17th May. The Eagles have managed to knock out the likes of Stockport County (1-0), Doncaster Rovers (2-0), Millwall (3-1), Fulham (3-0) and Aston Villa (3-0) on the way to their third-ever FA Cup final.

Palace’s Premier League campaign has been a solid one, as they have built up in form throughout the season, seeing them currently hold 12th-place with 46 points from 35 games.

Tottenham Hotspur versus Crystal Palace will not be broadcast live on UK TV.

Tottenham Hotspur

Radu Dragusin, Lucas Bergvall, James Maddison and Son Heung-min are all set to be absent from Tottenham’s matchday squad due to injury.

Crystal Palace

Chadi Riad, Cheick Doucoure and Adam Wharton are all injury doubts for Crystal Palace’s trip to Tottenham.

Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham have won just two of their last five matches heading into this game, with both of those victories coming against Bodo/Glimt having beaten the Norwegian Eliteserien outfit 3-1 in the first leg before earning a 2-0 away win thanks to goals by Dominic Solanke and Pedro Porro.

In terms of league form, Spurs were held to a drab 1-1 draw at West Ham last time out after disappointing defeats to Liverpool (5-1) and Nottingham Forest (2-1).

Crystal Palace

Like Spurs, Palace’s only win in their last five outings came in a cup competition as they thrashed Aston Villa 3-0 in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley thanks to a brace from Ismaila Sarr, as well as a goal from Eberechi Eze.

Since losing 5-0 to Newcastle United on 16th April, the Eagles have drawn all of their last three league matches, doing so against AFC Bournemouth (0-0), Arsenal (2-2) and Nottingham Forest (1-1).
