Still without a win in 2026, Tottenham desperately get all three points against Crystal Palace to avoid setting an unwanted record for themselves.
Tottenham are just two points above 17th placed Nottingham Forest and after suffering a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Fulham at the weekend, Tottenham are still without a win in 2026.
In the post-match conference, Igor Tudor let out his frustration over a refereeing decision on Jimenez’s push on Dragusin. Tottenham feel they have been on the worse end of referee decisions for similar fouls in the past 3 weeks.
Tudor who was brought in to stabilize things has now lost two games in a row but he will be hoping he can turn things around in this game.
On the other end, Crystal Palace have issues of their own. Oliver Glasner is poised to leave the club at the end of the season. Palace have just three wins in their six games in all competitions, adding to their appalling run of form between December and February.
Back home on Thursday night 🏟️

Team News
Crystal Palace will be without Lacroix who was red carded in the 2-1 loss to Manchester United. Strand Larsen was taken off during the Manchester United game due to a knock but he seems fit enough to play Tottenham.
Tottenham were finally blessed with some good news on the injury front against Fulham, as Kevin Danso and Pedro Porro returned following their layoffs. Djed Spence was expected to play last week but he was ruled out due to a minor calf issue.
The club will be waiting on further reports to see if he will or will not play.
