Crystal Palace and Tottenham clash in a London derby today between two out of form sides.
Oliver Glasner's side are winless in their last four games across all competitions after being knocked out of the EFL Cup at the hands of Arsenal two days before Christmas. They have also lost their last two Premier League games, shipping six goals in the process.
Spurs have also lost their last two league outings, going down to nine men in the defeat to Liverpool. It is now just one win in their last eight and Thomas Frank is coming under increasing pressure with his side languishing in the bottom half.
AllSportsPeople brings you all the latest football betting tips for this Premier League clash. Would Frank survive another defeat?
Crystal Palace vs. Spurs Prediction: Who Will Win Today?
With both sides badly out of form right now, picking a winner is tough but home advantage could swing it in Palace's favour.
Spurs' brilliant away form has fallen apart, picking up just one point from their last three away days and conceding nine goals.
Palace have won none of their last three at home either but should just have a bit too much for the current crisis club in the league.
Worryingly for Spurs, before this gameweek they were the second biggest expected goals (xG) overperformer - scoring 25 from an xG of 19.65.
Score Prediction: Crystal Palace 2-1 Tottenham (7/1 with Bet365)

Football Tips Today: Crystal Palace vs. Tottenham
Neither of these sides currently look like keeping a clean sheet so both teams to score at 4/5 with Coral looks like a good price.
Over 2.5 goals at 1/1 with Spreadex also looks likely and we're backing Jean-Philippe Mateta to get one of them.
He hasn't scored in his last four as he manages a knee issue but five of his seven league goals this season have come at Selhurst Park. The Frenchman is 7/5 with Ladbrokes to get a sixth on Sunday.
