Tottenham have had two weeks of reflection after emulating the Blues with a humiliating home defeat to Gary O’Neil’s counter-attacking masters on February 17 as a result of Chelsea’s unsuccessful efforts in the EFL Cup final, which forced the postponement of their scheduled London derby with Spurs.
After Dejan Kulusevski pushed home through Jose Sa’s legs at the near post to cancel out Joao Gomes’ opening header, the latter left his footprint on the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium turf once more, lashing in from Pedro Neto’s ninth assist of the season to hand Spurs their first Premier League defeat of 2024.

Following Postecoglou’s flying start in English football, his fellow Premier League novice Glasner enjoyed a dream Selhurst Park debut as Crystal Palace manager, taking over from the ailing Roy Hodgson after the 76-year-old decided to step down.
After sitting in the stands to watch Palace’s new three-at-the-back structure annoy Everton in a 1-1 draw, the former Eintracht Frankfurt manager oversaw a resounding victory over Burnley on February 24, with Chris Richards, Jordan Ayew, and Jean-Philippe Mateta all scoring in an 11-minute span.

Tottenham have failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last nine Premier League home games, and a re-energized Palace squad, boosted by Eze’s return, should extend Spurs’ miserable defensive streak on their own turf. A two-week rest period is exactly what the doctor ordered for a Tottenham side that was looking a little shaky, and while it may not be pretty, we expect Postecoglou’s free-scoring charges to return to winning ways.
Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 Crystal Palace, predicted by us.
