Tottenham vs Crystal Palace early injury news as 6 players ruled out

Tottenham and Crystal Palace face off in an all-London clash at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday. Both of these sides will already have an eye on their respective finals, with Spurs having booked a Europa League final spot by seeing off Bodo/Glimt on Thursday night.

Meanwhile, Palace have an FA Cup final date with Manchester City to look forward to. But the rest of the Premier League season must be played out, and in Tottenham’s case, they need an almost faultless final run-in to avoid setting a new record-low Premier League points tally. As for Palace, they are currently in in 12th and likely to remain there, five points ahead of 13th and five points behind 11th.

As the two London sides prepare to face off in North London, we have rounded up all the latest injury news surrounding both teams.

Chadi Riad - Out

Riad is out until towards the end of 2025 after an ACL rupture. Glasner said after the injury happened: “Chadi has ruptured his ACL, so we have lost [him] for the rest of the season and even longer. There was no impact, and Chadi as well, it was just a normal situation in training ' so it's really frustrating.” It has been a frustrating season for Riad, who has missed almost the entire season between two injuries.

Cheick Doucoure - Out

Doucoure will also be absent long-term with a knee injury. Glasner said: “After further assessments, Cheicky needs surgery on his knee, so we have lost [him] for the rest of the season. We hope [he] will return for pre-season.”

Lucas Bergvall - Out

Postecoglou has said recently: “With Lucas, it looks like the injury is significant enough to probably keep him out now for the rest of the season. He tweaked his ligaments in his ankle, so he is out.”

Heung-min Son - Out

Son still isn’t ready, and Tottenham are not likely to put him at risk now that they have booked a Europa League final spot. Postecoglou said ahead of the Bodo/Glimt game: “It’s disappointing for Sonny. He’s pushing hard. He has progressed, and there is a possibility of him getting some game time at the weekend, but he hasn’t trained with the team, yet. However, he is progressing. We’ll wait to see how he goes.”

James Maddison - Out

Maddison recently suffered a knee injury that will rule him out for the rest of the season. The Spurs boss said: “Madders from the first leg, so he's out. He'll miss the rest of this season and it’s disappointing for him. I'm disappointed for him because he's been a real catalyst for us. He'll miss out but that's been the story of our season.”

Radu Dragusin - Out

Dragusin is out for the rest of the season and likely a chunk of next term with an ACL injury. Postecoglou confirmed at the time: “Radu underwent surgery today following his ACL injury. That procedure has now been completed, and the centre-back will now commence with his recovery before beginning the rehab process.”
