Match Simon Whatshisface Boys vs. The Mighty Spurs Sunday 27th Oct 2pm

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

As poor as Palace’s results are, they still don’t concede many goals. They play with 5 defenders and this is going to be a tough matchup for us. They will not give us much space to play.

We can pray for Mikey, but we've got to also be realistic. That kid is getting 90 against City in the week.

It's going to be Timo. Hope it's Richarlison.

IF it's Richy; I hope we play both JM & DK and go all out to press from the front (as he doesn't stand to create much from out there)..... Reign the FBs in a bit more and keep Biss on the middle 3rd on patrol.

I imagine if it's Richy, it'll be a similar shape to Brentford at home (who also play 5 at the back).

Like Son in that game, less a winger and more an inside forward closer to Solanke. So Palace would ultimately be dealing with two physical high pressing forwards and Maddison moves out to the left in possession.
