Crystal Palace go into their third London derby in as many weeks when they entertain Tottenham in Saturday’s late kick-off.

Spurs have bounced back from their defeat to Manchester City late last month by recording three wins on the bounce, and they will be looking for a fourth against a Palace side who have failed to win in their last six top-flight games.

Roy Hodgson may take inspiration from the last time the Eagles welcomed a side from North London a fortnight ago, when they scored their first home goals of the season to draw 2-2 with Arsenal. Follow live:

Player to watch…

Harry Kane: The Spurs forward appeared to be suffering from a World Cup hangover at the beginning of the season but three goals in his last two appearances have raised hopes that he has overcome that hurdle. His double against PSV Eindhoven saw the England striker drag Spurs away from the depths of defeat, as he has done so many times, while his goal against Wolves proved to be the difference between the sides at Molineux.

No Zaha

Wilfried Zaha is missing for Crystal Palace, and it makes bad reading for the home side. Palace have lost their last 11 Premier League matches without their main man! Tottenham score the first goal without even kicking a ball.

So just ten minutes until kick-off here at Selhurst Park.

Will Crystal Palace repeat their display against Arsenal? Or will Tottenham triumph again with Harry Kane back in form?

Well current form suggests the latter, with Spurs having collected the most points away from home and Palace the fewest at home.

So here we go as Palace kick us off in the final game of the day. Will Spurs go level with Liverpool and Chelsea on 27 points?

The rain hasn't stopped the electric Palace faithful from making their voices heard. Spurs though are controlling things on the field and have dominated possession so far.

Juan Foyth had somewhat of a nightmare last weekend as he gave away two penalties against Wolves. He looks solid though here as he clears Jordan Ayew's cross behind for a corner. 

The resulting set-piece in fact causes problems for Hugo Lloris, who fails to get a punch on it, but nothing comes of it.

Lucas Moura has been great going forward this season, but he stops an almost certain goal for Palace. Ayew finds former Spurs man Andros Townsend, and he digs a cross out to find McArthur at the back post.

The midfielder nods it across goal and only the Brazilian's interception stops Kouyate from getting an effort on target from point-blank range.

A chance for the former Spurs man Townsend now. Mamadou Sakho plays a clipped ball forward and the rainfall sees the ball skip off the surface and allows Townsend to run onto it.

The winger however can only find the side netting with his near-post shot.

Sakho nearly created one for his side, and he now stops a certain goal.

His fellow Frenchman Moussa Sissoko drives his way past the hapless Palace defence down the left, and just as he looks to fire home, Sakho slides in to block.

Kieran Trippier goes down and stays down in the Spurs penalty area. He does manage to walk off but he is replaced by Serge Aurier almost immediately.
