Palace come into the game having recorded back-to-back goalless draws, the most recent of which saw them restrict Manchester United to just a solitary shot on target on Wednesday.
Spurs, for their part, have kept three consecutive clean sheets in all competitions and will be confident of keeping things solid once more this weekend against an Eagles side with only two goals in their last five Premier League outings.
