Sky Sports' Peter Smith at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium:

"Wharton was rebuked by Glasner last week for his frequency of fouling. That one was accidental, though.

"Boos from Palace fans when Munoz puts it out for Tel to get treatment.

"Even louder boos when Tel tries to win the ball when it's thrown back in!

"Tudor frantically apologises to Glasner."

Spurs have been flat in the early stages.

Sky Sports' Lewis Jones:

"This could be a nice spot for Crystal Palace to play without the pressures and stresses that have dogged them in recent months. They arrive knowing an opportunity to turn this crowd could be a massive factor in the game.

"They know the anxiety in this place can turn from noise into nerves in a heartbeat. If they can quiet any early momentum from the home stands, the pressure will grow heavier with every misplaced pass."

For Tottenham: win and they can breathe again. Fail, and the questions around this club grow louder.

Strap yourselves in, folks. Tottenham have a massive fight on their hands.

Sky Sports' Lewis Jones:

"The mood inside this magnificent stadium is anything but comfortable.

"Tottenham walk out here tonight knowing the shine of this arena offers no protection from the brutal mathematics of the Premier League table. This might be the most important night this stadium has hosted, nope not a title race, not a Champions League anthem, but a scrap to avoid the trapdoor.

"There’s tension in every corner."

Sky Sports' Lewis Jones:

“The ‘Spurs will be fine’ brigade are becoming a rare breed now. This relegation threat is real and comes over a sample size of results that is now a very healthy one. In their last 19 Premier League games, Spurs have taken 12 points. That’s 12 fewer than West Ham. They haven’t won a football match in the Premier League in 2026 and their last home win came on December 6 against Brentford.

“They’ve forgotten how to win. The consequences could be catastrophic.”

Sky Sports' Lewis Jones:

"Oliver Glasner will be enjoying being out of the spotlight tonight.

"While Igor Tudor paces the technical area under the microscope, the Palace boss can observe calmly from the other side, quietly hoping his players make the evening a really uncomfortable one
