Spurs starting to surge under Conte

Tottenham take on Crystal Palace in a Premier League London derby on Boxing Day and the hosts look good value to secure all three points.

Spurs returned from a coronavirus enforced two-week break with an encouraging 2-2 draw with Liverpool at home. Antonio Conte’s men then played West Ham in the EFL Cup and booked their place in the last four courtesy of a 2-1 win, so they look a side in form after their time off.

Palace’s schedule has also been hit by Covid-19 and their game at Watford last weekend was postponed. That means that Spurs have played twice since the Eagles’ last game, a 2-2 draw at home to Southampton, but I doubt fatigue will be an issue for the hosts given they had a two-week layoff themselves earlier this month.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium a stronghold for Spurs

Spurs have been dogged by inconsistent form throughout the season but they have improved under Conte and have been strong at home all season.

Tottenham have won six of their nine home games in the league and have lost just twice – and both of those defeats have come against sides in the top six. The fact Spurs managed to take a point against Liverpool and then beat West Ham also suggests they should be able to get the better of poor travellers Palace.

The visitors, who sit in 11th spot in the table, have lost four of their eight away games in the league and have lost their last two on the road without scoring. As such, a home win looks a good option for our main bet in this match-up.

Goals an issue for Palace away

托特纳姆热刺在回归赛场后与利物浦打成平局，并击败了西汉姆联。
热刺在英超联赛的九场主场比赛中赢了六场。
水晶宫已经输掉了八次联赛中的四次。
在所有的比赛中，宫殿队在五场客场失利中都没有进球。
在孔戴的带领下，热刺开始腾飞

在节礼日的英超联赛伦敦德比中，托特纳姆热刺将迎战水晶宫，而主队看起来很有价值，可以确保全部三分。

热刺从冠状病毒感染后的两周休息中回归，在主场以令人鼓舞的2-2战平利物浦。安东尼奥·孔戴的球队随后在EFL杯上与西汉姆联比赛，并以2-1的比分晋级四强，所以他们在休息后看起来状态不错。

王宫队的日程也受到新冠肺炎疫情的影响，上周末在沃特福德的比赛被推迟。这意味着，自从老鹰在主场2-2战平南安普敦之后，热刺已经踢了两场比赛，但我怀疑疲劳是否会成为主队的问题，因为他们在本月早些时候已经被解雇了两周。

托特纳姆热刺体育场是热刺队的大本营

热刺整个赛季都处于状态不稳定的状态，但在孔戴的带领下他们有所进步，而且整个赛季都在主场表现强劲。

热刺在他们的9场主场比赛中赢了6场，只输了2场，而这2场比赛的对手都是排名前六的球队。事实上热刺在对利物浦的比赛中取得了一分，然后击败了西汉姆联，这也表明他们应该能够战胜可怜的旅行者宫殿。

客队在积分榜上排名第11位，在他们的8场客场比赛中输掉了4场，在最近的2场客场比赛中也没有进球。因此，主场取胜看起来是我们在这场比赛中的主要赌注。

进球对Palace来说是个问题

在所有的比赛中，王宫在客场五场失利中都没有进球，这种情况在节礼日可能会继续下去。在两次退让之前
