Crystal Palace have
experienced a significant decline in their overall performance in recent times.
They suffered a heavy 0-4 defeat to Newcastle United in their most recent away
game. In their last six matches, they have only managed one victory, two draws,
and three losses. Currently, Crystal Palace sit in 11th place in the Premier
League standings with a record of three wins, three draws, and three losses.
They are currently facing several difficulties. Many key players are injured,
limiting their tactical options. While Crystal Palace’s defence has been solid,
their offensive performance has been lacking. They have only scored seven goals
in the league so far, highlighting their struggles in the forward department.

In the last round
of the league, Tottenham secured a comfortable 2-0 victory over Fulham at home.
Currently, they hold the top position in the Premier League standings, boasting
an impressive unbeaten record of seven wins and two draws. Despite the departure
of their star player Harry Kane, Tottenham have displayed a more balanced
approach both in attack and defence this season. This has led to their best
start in recent years. Additionally, the arrival of Coach Ange Postecoglou has
revitalised Son Heung-Min, who has been in superb form. Under Postecoglou’s
guidance, Son has already netted seven goals in the league, placing him second
in the Premier League’s top scorers list, trailing only Erling Haaland.
Furthermore, the performance of new signing James Maddison has been remarkable.
The English international has made a significant impact, contributing three
goals and five assists in the league so far.
This season,
Tottenham are considered a formidable contender for the Premier League title.
Their overall strength, current state, and performance have been superior to
Crystal Palace. In their previous five encounters, Tottenham have secured four
victories and suffered just one loss, demonstrating their clear advantage in
head-to-head matchups. With their impressive track record and current form,
Tottenham are unquestionably a team worth keeping an eye on as they continue
their pursuit of success in the league.
