On January 4, Selhurst Park (London) will host the match of the 19th round of the English Premier League, in which Crystal Palace will compete with Tottenham. The battle will start at 21:00 CET.

Crystal Palace

The club spends its 2nd season under the rule of Patrick Vieira. Replacing Roy Hodgson, who was more than experienced, Steve Parish hoped to refresh the team's game and, to say the truth, he achieved his aim, moreover, the results became also noticeably better. In general, the “the Glaziers” look pretty good even now, but there is a lack of stability and, as a result, victories alternate with failures. Frankly speaking, the number of defeats was much bigger: the team flew out of the EFL Cup and lost the game in the struggle with Nottingham Forest in November, and the winter started with a 0-3 score at home arena against Fulham. At the same time, the match with Bournemouth, the newcomer of the Premier League, was easy enough; it ended with a confident, “grandmaster” 2-0 victory.

Tottenham

The team got Antonio Conte as a coach about a year ago. The Italian was able to achieve the desired result at his first trial, bringing his new wards out of the pit to the long-awaited 4th place that gave an opportunity to take part in the Champions League. There was an increased workload due to the main European tournament, which still did not influence “the Spurs” and their good game. But it is reasonable to mention that a bright attack, where Kane, Son, Kulusevski shine like the stars, where Perisic is more than useful (and Richarlison should finally give a serious assistance), Lloris and his defense often “drop out” of the game, conceding a lot of goals. As a result, there are a lot of spectacular fights, but if November ended with a 4-3 victory that was really “snatched from the hands” of Leeds, then in December the team started with a drawn, making a comeback from 0-2 against Brentford. That signal was not heard and the next opponent, Aston Villa, defeated the team, creating a couple of goals without any response.

The statistics of head-to-head matches

Crystal Palace has got only 1 win among 7 previous head-to-head matches. That victory was just a season before; moreover, it was pretty confident, with a 3-0 score. However, Tottenham responded in kind in the second leg.

Predictions

Bookmakers believe that “the Spurs” will finally win. Obviously, it will be more than difficult, thus, it's worth betting on “total: over 2.5” (odd: 1.92).
