Crystal Palace vs Tottenham Predictions, Betting Tips & Match Preview

Luke Hamilton 03 Mar 2026
  • Tottenham are looking to improve upon a record of just one win in their last eight Premier League games when they make the trip to Crystal Palace on Sunday.

    Spurs need to bounce back from a 3-0 loss to Nottingham Forest in their last away game and a 2-1 home defeat to Liverpool on Saturday when they finished the game with nine men.

    But with fatigue likely to be a factor for Palace in their fourth match in ten days, we could be in for an entertaining clash with plenty of goals at Selhurst Park.

Crystal Palace vs Tottenham Tips

Our Tip Methodology

At FootballTips, every prediction is shaped by a mix of data-driven analysis and informed football insight. Our contributors consider a wide range of factors before recommending a bet – from recent form and head-to-head records to tactical matchups, team news, and underlying stats.

We look for patterns in goal trends, home and away splits, player performance, and betting market movement to identify where the value lies. We don’t just tip favourites – we aim to find selections that offer a genuine edge. Whether it’s a goalscorer angle, a BTTS trend, or a high-priced underdog, each tip is backed by research and reasoning to help you bet smarter.

Why We’re Backing Over 2.5 Goals @ 1/1 with Sky Bet

  • Tottenham have to be positive as they look for only their second win in nine league games.
  • Each of Spurs’ last seven Premier League away games have featured at least three goals.
  • Palace’s defence are bound to be fatigued as they face their fourth match in ten days.
  • The Eagles have much to do to recover from the 4-1 loss they endured against Leeds in their last league match.

Why We’re Backing Richarlison to Score Anytime @ 11/4 with AK Bets

  • Richarlison leads the Tottenham Premier League goalscoring charts this season with seven.
  • Xavi Simons’ suspension should mean the Brazilian is given an opportunity to lead the line for Thomas Frank’s side.
  • Richarlison was on hand to score Spurs’ goal in their 2-1 defeat to Liverpool last Saturday after coming on as a substitute.
  • The former Everton striker has scored in four of his last seven Premier League outings and also netted in the Champions League against holders Paris Saint-Germain.

Crystal Palace Form/Stats

  • Palace’s defence has been breached seven times in their last two Premier League games.
  • Eight of the Eagles’ last 13 league matches have featured at least three goals.
  • Oliver Glasner’s team have failed to score in just two of their last 13 assignments.

Tottenham Hotspur Form/Stats

  • Tottenham have won just one of their last eight Premier League matches.
  • Thomas Frank’s team have kept just one clean sheet in those games.
  • Spurs have conceded at least twice in six of their last seven league outings.

Player to Watch

Jean-Philippe Mateta has not scored in his last four league appearances for Palace, but this could be a game where he dominates the Tottenham rearguard.

Spurs will have to reshuffle at the back following Cristian Romero’s red card against Liverpool and that could open the door for the Eagles’ French striker to make a big impression, just as he did when he scored in the only goal when Tottenham last visited Selhurst Park in October 2024.
