Crystal Palace averages 2.6 goals per game, scoring 1.4 and conceding 1.2. For the over 2.5 goals market, Tottenham had 4 out of 5 matches with three or more goals, Crystal Palace had 2 out of 5.

Tottenham concedes most in the 31-45 and 61-75 minute intervals (33% each), while Crystal Palace concedes most in the 31-45 minute interval (83%). Given Tottenham's high scoring rate and both teams' less reliable defenses, betting on over 2.5 goals seems justified.
