Spurs face Crystal Palace at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday, October 31, 2026, as Roberto De Zerbi's side look to extend their Premier League winning streak.
Tottenham head into the London derby after securing an impressive 2-0 victory over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last weekend. The result followed a 3-1 win over Coventry City after what has been a disappointing start to the 2026-27 campaign.
The North London side currently sit 14th in the Premier League table with nine points having managed two wins, three draws, and three defeats so far this season. However, their recent performances suggest they could be turning a corner.
Crystal Palace, meanwhile, have endured a difficult run so far under Pierre Sage. The Eagles suffered a 2-0 defeat against Newcastle United in their previous Premier League fixture, following a heavy 5-0 loss to Brighton.
Palace currently sit 17th in the standings with seven points and have won just two games this season. However, they beat Fulham 1-0 midweek in the Carabao Cup fourth round thanks to a goal from Eddie Nketiah.
The visitors also boast a dominant record against Tottenham, having won three of the last four meetings.
