Tottenham Hotspur travel to face Crystal Palace this afternoon.

Crystal Palace will be looking to aid their survival hopes this afternoon as they host Tottenham Hotspur at Selhurst Park.

Roy Hodgson goes with Wayne Hennessey in goal this afternoon, with a back four of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, James Tomkins, Timothy Fosu-Mensah and Patrick van Aanholt in front of the Welsh international.

Jairo Riedewald starts in midfield once again, and is joined by the more experienced James McArthur and Luka Milivojevic, with the latter scoring three times in his last four games.

With Wilfried Zaha out of action, Andros Townsend and deadline day signing Alexander Sorloth will be called upon to support Christian Benteke in attack, as an injury-hit Palace side look to spring a shock.

Ex-Spurs youngster Nya Kirby is on the bench for the Eagles, alongside Dion Henry, Damien Delaney, Pape Souare, Jason Lokilo, Erdal Rakip and Lee Chung-yong.

Meanwhile, Spurs are back in action after drawing 2-2 at Rochdale on Sunday afternoon in the FA Cup, and will be hoping for better from their latest away trip.

Hugo Lloris starts in goal, whilst Belgian duo Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen are both out, meaning Eric Dier partners Davinson Sanchez at centre back.

Ben Davies and Serge Aurier will fill the full back spots, with Victor Wanyama and Mousa Dembele forming an imposing central midfield partnership.

Erik Lamela is handed a surprise start, and joins Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli in supporting striker Harry Kane in the final third.

That means that Son Heung-min is only on the bench, as is new signing Lucas Moura, as well as Michel Vorm, Juan Foyth, Danny Rose, Kieran Trippier and Moussa Sissoko.
