Tottenham vs Crystal Palace F.C. Standings and EPL Table: Palace Pull Clear

The Tottenham vs Crystal Palace F.C. standings picture at the end of the 2025-26 Premier League season tells the story of two south London clubs whose fortunes diverged so dramatically across the campaign that only seven points separates a side settled in mid-table comfort from one that spent months staring at the prospect of relegation.

Crystal Palace finished in 12th place with 45 points from 37 games, recording 11 wins, 12 draws and 14 defeats, with a goal difference of minus nine, a respectable outcome that reflects Oliver Glasner’s ability to extract results from a squad relying heavily on individual talent rather than collective depth.

Tottenham Hotspur sit 17th on 38 points from 36 games at the time of writing, having recorded just nine wins and 16 defeats under Thomas Frank in a campaign defined by relegation anxiety, a shortage of creative quality and the long shadow of Dejan Kulusevski’s season-ending knee injury.

The two sides met twice in 2025-26, with results splitting one victory apiece in circumstances that captured precisely why both clubs have endured such inconsistency across the same ten-month period.

Archie Gray’s debut senior goal earned Tottenham a 1-0 win at Selhurst Park on 28 December 2025, temporarily moving Spurs up to 11th and easing the pressure on Frank after a difficult December.

The reverse fixture at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 5 March 2026 swung decisively Palace’s way after Micky van de Ven’s red card in the 38th minute, with Ismaila Sarr scoring twice and Jørgen Strand Larsen adding a third in a 3-1 Palace victory that deepened Tottenham’s survival concerns.

Palace won a Premier League double over Spurs for the second season running, following up their 1-0 and 2-0 victories in 2024-25 with another aggregate advantage of 4-1 across 2025-26, a remarkable statistic given Tottenham’s historical dominance in the fixture spanning 38 wins from 69 all-time meetings.

The Tottenham vs Crystal Palace F.C. standings gap of seven points with two games remaining means Spurs’ final-day meeting at Bournemouth on 24 May 2026 is now essentially a must-win fixture, while Palace host Arsenal in a season finale with nothing but pride at stake.
