They will face an Eagles side, who have struggled at both ends of the pitch this season and who are sitting just a point above the drop zone.
Opta’s Supercomputer has made De Zerbi’s side big favourites, giving them a 53.7 per cent chance of getting all three points and making it three wins from three matches.
A draw is deemed the second most likely result at 23.8 per cent, while Pierre Sage’s side are given just a 22.5 per cent chance of walking away with an away win.

Why a slip-up on Saturday will kill Spurs’ momentum
Tottenham fans are so accustomed to seeing their side slip up when they are least expected to, which is why the clash against Palace is far from a given.
If Spurs fail to get all three points tomorrow, it will kill the momentum that has been acquired over the last few weeks and dent the players’ confidence.
Tottenham have a very winnable run of fixtures coming up over the next few weeks and have a golden opportunity to be within the European spots by the start of December.
A comfortable win over the Eagles will certainly set the team up well to climb the table and banish memories of their poor start to the season.
