  • Crystal Palace 1-1 Tottenham

  • They done it against Liverpool away in last match, maybe they can beat Tottenham at home?

  • 0 1

  • Once teams in the Premier League reach 38-40 points they tend to take their foot off the pedal so Palace's win over Liverpool might work in Tottenham's favour... However, Palace will be full of confidence and having already beat Chelsea and Arsenal, they would love to put one over Spurs in their home ground. Spurs will be down after losing the semi and might be vulnerable to lapses in concentration. I hope I'm wrong but I don't think Spurs will win this one. I'm expecting 2-2 or even 3-3 with most goals coming in the second half.

  • @MEHJones Sometimes I live being wrong :)

  • @MEHJones *love

  • I think the two template teams are probably right. This is a difficult game to predict. With Spurs in such good form and Crystal Palace being inconsistent I am going to say a Spurs win by a one goal margin (like Whoscored prediction above by Ben McAleer). Difficult to know exactly how this game will flow with Palace being the home side.

  • Agree with whoscored :-)

  • I wonder if Spurs will go back to the 4-2-3-1 and use Son in his natural position. He didn't look comfortable as a wingback. It's a big game for them with Chelsea increasing their lead up top yesterday.

  • disgusting for Wanyama not to get a 2nd yellow for that, nearly as bad as Casemiro in the Champions League AND el Clasico

  • @JoeSWFC Townsend dived. Wanyama tried to pull out and Townsend was already half the way down before contact. If you hate diving, and want it out of the game along with cheating, then you can't condone it when it suits you.

  • Both sides in good form very hard game. spurs will get the better of them though both teams to score

  • Big Sam is a thorn!
