Two London clubs eager for December to end will face off at Selhurst Park when Crystal Palace hosts Tottenham.
The Eagles, like Spurs, will be looking to avoid a third consecutive defeat in what is also the final match of 2025 for both sides. The Eagles will have to find ways to score goals without Cameroonian striker Ismaila Sarr, who has left for Morocco for the Africa Cup of Nations. But now, in addition to those absent due to international duty, they are also dealing with injuries. Oliver Glasner will have to captain the Crystal Palace ship while also considering the recent injury to Chris Richards, who joins a long list of injured players that includes five others.
Tottenham may not benefit from Crystal Palace's absences, as they have their own. Tottenham was coming off a 3-0 defeat against Nottingham Forest. However, they also lost 1-2 against Liverpool in London, in a match where Xavi Simons and Cristian Romero, two key players for Spurs, were sent off. Therefore, they will miss Sunday's London derby.

Our Crystal Palace vs Tottenham Prediction
To replace Romero, Thomas Frank is expected to start Kevin Danso against Crystal Palace; Richarlison appears to be the most obvious choice to replace Xavi Simons. For Crystal Palace, Mateta scored against Tottenham last time out, and having recovered from his injuries, he should start.
Tottenham finished as low as 17th in the last Premier League season, and Thomas Frank hasn't given much indication that he can improve the situation. Last season, Tottenham lost both league matches against Crystal Palace.
Our prediction for Crystal Palace vs Tottenham is: Crystal Palace to win.
