England Premier League Tottenham vs Crystal Palace match preview

totcrp.jpg

After long waiting the most exciting football league will finally continue. Next weekend will bring us little London derby between Tottenham Hotspur and Crystal Palace. Tottenham was not so good so far, Aston Villa and Newcastle games showed they have great problems with clubs with well organised defense. Crystal Palace is just team like that. They not only sit on 4th place at the moment, but play with well organised defense and dangerous counter attacks. Manchester United knows that the best as they lost against Palace this season. Zaha can make big damage to any defense. Players like Ayew, Benteke, Milivojevic can be danger too. I have no doubt they will let Spurs have ball, defend with 10 players and wait their moments for quick counter attack. Spurs broken defense lead by Sanchez and Rose could easily concede goal in this match. Tottenham will probably play with Sanchez on right back position again and with Vertonghen and Alderweireld in center with Rose on left. That will give Crystal Palace opportunity to attack them over wings. Sanchez can't stop Zaha I am confident in that.

Spurs have some injury problems as N'Dombele, Lo Celso, Sessegnion, Foyth and KWP will probably miss this game. Hard defending team like Crystal Palace is going to be big problem for them especially if they start to pass wide and backward and avoid to try passing forward. If Poch put Eriksen from beginning that could help a bit. I expect game where both teams will score at least 1 goal. I wouldn't be surprised to see Palace going home with something from this game.
