A London derby takes place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Boxing Day with Crystal Palace set to pay a visit to their capital counterparts.
Antonio Conte's men have recovered from a COVID-19 outbreak to draw 2-2 with Liverpool and beat West Ham United 2-1 in the EFL Cup quarter-finals over the past week.
The Lilywhites are set to begin the day seventh in the Premier League table, but they are only six points behind fourth-placed Arsenal having played three games fewer.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.
