The specter of Premier League relegation loomed ever larger for Tottenham Hotspur on Thursday after a 3-1 home defeat by Crystal Palace left it teetering just above the drop zone.

When striker Dominic Solanke gave 16th-placed Tottenham the lead against the run of play in the 34th minute, a first league win in 2026 looked on the cards for the host.

But it collapsed in shambolic fashion before the interval with Palace replying three times to stun the host after Tottenham defender Micky van de Ven was sent off.
