Follow live coverage as Crystal Palace face Tottenham Hotspur today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The hosts have made a disappointing start to the new campaign and Oliver Glasner is coming under some pressure, despite last year’s excellent form to end the season. It’s no wins and just three points from Palace’s first eight league games of this term, with three straight defeats recently seeing them score only one goal in that time.
Spurs, meanwhile, can go fifth if they win here and Ange Postecoglou’s team look to have found a bit of consistency of late, winning three of their last four as well as progressing well in Europe. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:
Crystal Palace vs Tottenham Hotspur
All eyes will be on Mikey Moore this afternoon in south London. The teenager (17 years, 77 days) is the youngest player to start a Premier League match for Tottenham Hotspur since Stephen Carr against Ipswich Town in September 1993 (17 years, 28 days).

The teams are in the tunnel and kick-off will commence shortly at Selhurst Park. Tottenham have won 19 of their 30 Premier League games against Crystal Palace (D7 L4), their highest win rate against any fellow London side in the competition’s history (63%). Will Ange Postecoglou’s side inflict more misery on Oliver Glasner’s Eagles?

Meanwhile, Ange Postecoglou has handed 17-year-old wonderkid Mikey Moore his first Premier League start at Selhurst Park. Moore is the only change from last weekend’s London derby win over West Ham, replacing the injured Son Heung-Min. After impressing in Thursday’s Europa League victory over AZ Alkmaar and being compared to Neymar, the teenager is expected to line-up on the left-hand side of Spurs’ attacking trio alongside Dominic Solanke and Brennan Johnson.

Oliver Glasner makes three changes to the team that lost 1-0 at Nottingham Forest on Monday evening. Jean-Phillipe Mateta returns to the starting line-up with Eddie Nketiah dropping to the bench.

Goalkeeper Matt Turner returns to the matchday squad after being ineligible for the last game against his parent club.
