The full picture

Tottenham Hotspur is set to host Crystal Palace, with Roberto De Zerbi's side having three advantages, according to Spurs Web. The match is scheduled for Saturday, 31st October, at 17:30. Tottenham is coming off a string of impressive performances, including a historic 2-0 victory at Stamford Bridge. The mood in North London is at its best in some time.

Tottenham has had a longer recovery period between their last game and the upcoming match against Crystal Palace, having exited the Carabao Cup. They have six days to recover and prepare, whereas Crystal Palace has a cup fixture against Fulham on Wednesday, leaving them just two days to recover before traveling to Tottenham.

Crystal Palace is under pressure, having conceded 19 goals in nine Premier League games and won just once in their previous seven games. The pressure on Pierre Sage is mounting, and there is a possibility he could be absent against Spurs if Palace suffer another embarrassing result against Fulham. The Palace hierarchy is believed to be drawing up contingency plans.

The fans have done their bit. It is about time the players gave them something to celebrate regularly. The numbers make for grim reading.
