Tottenham vs Crystal Palace betting preview

The Oliver Glasner era at Palace is under way and it certainly got off to a strong start last weekend when Burnley were dismissed 3-0 at Selhurst Park.

We saw elements of what the former Eintracht Frankfurt boss is all about with his favoured back three employed and a strong press, which resulted in forcing an error for one of the goals.

Yet it would be daft to read too much into that result, one obtained against a side surely destined for the drop and reduced to 10 men for the majority of the game.

A trip across the Thames to north London will be a much sterner test for Glasner and co, with Spurs having won nine of their 13 home matches so far.

Admittedly, they lost 2-1 to Wolves last time out a fortnight ago (Spurs had no game last weekend) and they could be without the in-form Richarlison.

However, Son Heung-min is available again after Asian Cup duty and looks an ideal replacement down the middle, with Dejan Kulusevski and Timo Werner likely to trouble Palace’s defence in wide areas.

Meanwhile, James Maddison has returned to the midfield where there are now greater options.

The hosts also have a strong record in this specific fixture, Palace losing their last eight away to Spurs.

A repeat with both teams scoring looks the best betting approach, while we’ve also got two other picks for you – including one at 14/1! Read on.

Spurs to win and both teams to score (Spreadex)

The BTTS bet has landed 15 times in Spurs’ last 16 games and they continue to have doubts over their first-choice defenders.

Palace will be buoyed by their new manager and last week’s victory but this is a big step up from facing 10-man Burnley and it’s a ground at which they’ve lost eight times on the spin.

In short, this looks the value way of getting with a home team who have won five of six home games against teams in the bottom half – the exception being the bizarre Chelsea game in which they had two sent off.

Eberechi Eze 3+ shots (bet365)

Eze is something of a shot machine and he’s crucial to Palace’s attack.

The England international has been sorely missed due to injury be he gives his side an added dimension.

He’s landed this bet in five of his last six starts, a run which includes games at Arsenal and Chelsea, so the price looks a good one.

Back Eze 3+ shots at 13/8 with bet365

Daniel Munoz anytime scorer (Sky Bet)

History suggests Munoz will land this bet at a decent price sooner or later so let’s have a go now as he faces a defence struggling to keep clean sheets.

Often a set-piece threat, the Colombian full-back netted five goals in the first half of the season at Genk, adding to the seven he scored for the Belgians last term.

Under Glasner, he’s going to be deployed in a wing-back role, giving him further chances to get forward too.

Back Munoz to score at any time at 14/1 with Sky Bet
