Tottenham vs Crystal Palace - Premier League: TV channel, team news, lineups & prediction
By Sean Walsh
Tottenham Hotspur welcome London neighbours Crystal Palace to N17 on Saturday looking to breathe fresh life into their season.
Ryan Mason has at least injected some positivity into Spurs' last two displays, though defensive lapses have continued to cost them.
He could perhaps take a leaf out of Roy Hodgson's, who has managed to not just bring the good feeling back to Selhurst Park but embark on a solid run of form.
Spurs are in need of a win in order to boost their flailing European hopes, while the Eagles are looking to secure an unlikely top-half finish.
Here's everything you need to know ahead of this one.

Tottenham vs Crystal Palace prediction
If I know Tottenham Hotspur - and sadly, I do - they will endeavour to give their opponents a quick head-start on Saturday.
But Spurs are looking like a formidable attacking side once more with Mason at the helm, with Son Heung-min returning to form and Richarlison finally off the mark in the Premier League.
Palace have been one of England's most entertaining sides since Hodgson made his return last month and this has all the makings of a back-and-forth thriller.
Prediction: Tottenham 3-2 Crystal Palace
