Crystal Palace head coach Pierre Sage has confirmed his starting lineup for today’s Premier League meeting with Tottenham, making two changes from the side that began the previous league game against Newcastle.
Dean Henderson returns in goal for his first Premier League start since Palace’s win at Fulham. Walter Benítez is named among the substitutes after Henderson started the Carabao Cup victory at Fulham.
The other change comes at right wing-back, where Óscar Mingueza replaces Anan Khalaili. Khalaili is also included on the bench for the trip to north London.
Jean-Philippe Mateta leads the Palace attack, with Yéremy Pino and Dwight McNeil supporting him. The midfield features Daichi Kamada and Adam Wharton, while Marc Guéhi, Axel Disasi and Maxence Lacroix form the remainder of the defensive unit alongside Mingueza and Tyrick Mitchell.
Cheick Doucouré is among the substitutes after making his first start across the previous two seasons at Craven Cottage. Wednesday’s match-winner Eddie Nketiah is also available from the bench.
Palace start with Henderson, Richards, Disasi, Canvot, Mingueza, Kamada, Wharton, Mitchell, Pino, McNeil and Mateta. The substitutes are Benítez, Lerma, Khalaili, Chilwell, Hughes, Doucouré, Osorio, Guessand and Nketiah.
