Friday nights English Premier League action sees table topping Spurs travel to Crystal Palace with their unbeaten record still in tact.
Palace
Palace have a record of 3 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats and are just below halfway in the standings. Goals have generally been pretty scarce for Palace and certainly in their last 2 matches, a 0-0 draw at home to Forest and last weekend's 4-0 hiding away to Newcastle. Earlier home games delivered a 0-0 draw at home to Fulham in a London derby, they did beat Wolves 3-2 but went down 1-0 to Arsenal.
Spurs
Spurs were comfortable in a 2-0 home win over Fulham on Monday night with Son and Maddison scoring and providing the assists. That win saw Spurs move 2 points clear at the top of the standings, still unbeaten with 7 wins and 2 draws. The only dropped points came in London derby matches, a 2-2 draw at Arsenal and another 2-2 draw away to Brentford on the opening weekend.
Spurs' odds to win the title have been shortening by the week and they are now into 10.5/1 with BoyleSports
Recent Head to Head
Spurs won this fixture 4-0 last season whilst the return finished 1-0 in their favour.
The Betting
At the time of writing Palace are trading at 31/10 to win the game with the draw priced at 2.85/1 and Spurs can be backed at 0.83/1
A game of 3 goals or more is priced at 15/20 and it's 7/10 for both teams to score
Son is 51/10 to score the first goal of the game and 1.54/1 to score anytime
The Verdict:
In addition to long term absentee Palace have been missing Eze and Schlupp in recent weeks and unless the team news is more positive this week they might struggle for creativity against a Spurs side who continue to get the job done.
In a season when clean sheets have been pretty scarce Spurs boast 4 including 2 in their last 2 matches and I will take my chance they can keep Palace out here.
Elsewhere I remain convinced that Pedro Porro will reward me with a goal in the near future, hopefully on Friday
Bets: Away team clean sheet ? (yes) at 1.86/1 with BoyleSports
Anytime goalscorer Pedro Porro at 13/1 with Boylesports
