Middling teams Tottenham Hotspur (1-1-3, 6 points) and Crystal Palace (3-2-0, 9 points) are scheduled to meet on Sunday at the White Hart Lane for a week 6 match in the 2015-2016 Premier League season.
The Spurs are having one of their worst starts in recent years as they started the new season with a loss against Manchester United before drawing their next three games versus Stoke City, Leicester City, and Everton.
They finally won their fifth game last Sunday via a 1-0 nipping of Sunderland at the Stadium of Light, as per Bleacher Report.
Midfielder Ryan Mason struck a late goal to give Mauricio Pochettino his first victory of the season.
Meanwhile, Crystal Palace had a run of two consecutive wins before succumbing to league leader Manchester City, 0-1, in their game last Saturday at the Selhurst Park, via The Independent.
It was the second loss of the season for Alan Pardew's side, but they are still on pace among the top contenders with nine points so far, tied with West Ham and just a point below powerhouse teams Manchester United and Arsenal.
The Eagles are expected to grind it out again with the Spurs, but Malian midfielder Bakary Sako is on hand to score his third goal of the season in four games for Pardew.
The predicted result is a close 2-1 win for Crystal Palace.
