Tottenham Hotspur will face Palace in the 27th round of the English Premier League in the 2023-24 season at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on the 3rd (Korea time). 스포츠토토
Ahead of the match, Tottenham's front-line striker Hissarlison has been confirmed to be absent. Coach Enze Postecoglou, who attended a press conference ahead of the match against Palace, explained, “Hissarlison cannot play for three to four weeks. He suffered a knee injury in the last match.”
Naturally, Son Heung-min became the most likely front-line striker to play against Palace. Son Heung-min has already scored many goals as a front-line striker while Hisharlisong was already sluggish.
Thanks to this, Tottenham is counting on Son Heung-min's toes in this game. Not only is he good as a front-line striker, but Son Heung-min had a lot of good memories against Palace.
Son joined Tottenham in 2015 and played in England. So far, he has played in a total of 16 matches against Palace, scoring eight goals and two assists. Among them, there are many meaningful goals. First of all, Son scored a historic Premier League debut goal against Palace in 2015. In the sixth round of the 2015-16 Premier League, he drove alone after a pass from Christian Eriksen, before splitting the goal for Palace.
Then, in April 2019, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was opened, and Tottenham faced Palace in its first game. Son Heung-min played in the match and scored the first goal of Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the 10th minute of the second half.
Next, he had a special celebration last season after scoring against Palace. Son suffered an orbital fracture ahead of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Eventually, Son Heung-min entered the tournament wearing a face protective mask. He returned to Tottenham right after the tournament, but he was still wearing a mask. Son consistently revealed his discomfort with masks, and after his return, he remained silent.
Then, Son scored a goal to secure a 4-0 victory over Palace in the 19th round of the Premier League. Son scored the goal and threw a mask, roaring. It was a celebration that clearly expressed discomfort over masks. As such, Son has been particularly strong against Palace. Son could hate Palace.
