Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Crystal Palace

Tottenham Hotspur will aim to snap a two-game winless run in the Premier League when they travel to Selhurst Park to face Crystal Palace on Wednesday evening.

Antonio Conte's men opened the New Year in disappointing fashion with a 2-0 loss to Aston Villa, as Emiliano Buendia and Douglas Luiz found the back of the net in North London.

Spurs missed the chance to break back into the top four of the table and lie fifth as things stand - two points behind Manchester United having played a game more.
