Report provides injury updates on Spurs stars ahead of Crystal Palace clash
Football.London have revealed that Tottenham Hotspur do not have any fresh injury concerns ahead of their clash against Crystal Palace on Friday.
Spurs will travel to Selhurst Park knowing that a win will see them temporarily go five points clear at the top of the Premier League table, with Manchester City having a tough trip to Old Trafford for the Manchester derby on Sunday.
It looks like Postecoglou will head to South London with a fully fit squad, barring the long-term absentees.

Injury progress looking promising for Tottenham
Football.London have revealed that while Destinty Udogie was withdrawn early in the second half against Fulham due to fatigue, the left-back is expected to start against Palace.
Pape Matar Sarr is also expected to be fit despite coming off in the 61st minute against the Cottagers due to an illness.
The report adds that even though Rodrigo Bentancur is now back in full training, we are unlikely to see the midfielder back in action until November.
The outlet suggests that while Ryan Sessegonon is now back in light training, he is not nearing a return and might not be back until December while Manor Solomon is also expected to remain sidelined until the end of the year.
Finally, Ivan Perisic remains out with an ACL injury, with the Croat likely to only be fit next summer.
Spurs Web Opinion
Curiously, this report does not shed any light on the situation of Ben Davies, who missed the Fulham clash with a knock. While Bissouma will come into the team in place of Hojberg tomorrow, I do wonder if Postecoglou will rotate one or two more players, given the short turnaround.
