Tottenham moved into the top half of the Premier League as they claimed a third straight win by beating 10-man Crystal Palace 2-0.
Spurs cause was aided in the 13th minute when Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta was shown a straight red card for a poor challenge on Micky van de Ven.
Archie Gray headed Tottenham into the lead 12 minutes later, but it was not until the 73rd minute that Spurs’ advantage became comfortable, Jan Paul van Hecke scoring in slightly fortuitous fashion to end the game as a contest.
Palace’s third straight league defeat leaves Palace third bottom in the table and will only increase the scrutiny on boss Pierre Sage, with some reports having suggested he would be sacked if the Eagles suffered defeat in North London.
A European tie with Hoffenheim awaits Palace before Liverpool visit Selhurst Park, but the chances of a different manager being in the dugout against for those games look to be increasing.
