Crystal Palace made a disastrous start to the season, changed manager and started to climb the table. That's the good news but recently their form has dipped again and they start the weekend just one point above the relegation zone. This game doesn't take place until Sunday so it's entirely possible that by the time the game kicks off, they could be back in the relegation zone. Palace have just two points from their last four league games and with the bottom of the table so tight this season, a run like that can see you plumetting down the table. Palace are 15th in the table but are likely to be dropping lower with a run of fixtures that sees them take on Tottenham, Manchester United and Chelsea in consecutive league fixtures followed by a trip to Huddersfield and a home game with Liverpool. Their home record is a decent one since their recovery with only one loss in the last ten. Tottenham begin the weekend in fifth place just a point off the top four but know that with Manchester United facing Chelsea this weekend, they have a chance to get back in the top four with a win at Selhurst Park. They are unbeaten in their last 14 league and cup games since being beaten by league leaders Manchester City. The last two have been drawn though and of their last eight league and cup matches, five have ended in a stalemate with all five of those draws being away from home. Their next four league games are against sides in the bottom half of the table so it's an important period of time for them and of course there's also the FA Cup and Champions League to contend with too. Away form in the Premier League has seen Tottenham go four games unbeaten and with Harry Kane having scored in eight of the last ten games, they can capitalize on some Palace errors and get the three points from this game.
