Why isn’t Crystal Palace vs Tottenham live on TV in UK today?

The Eagles have endured a miserable start to the season and saw their winless run extended to eight matches following Monday’s 1-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest.

Manager Oliver Glasner insists there are reasons to be positive about the situation but Palace are in dire need of a victory, there is little doubt about that.

Spurs, meanwhile, are back on track in the League after making light work of West Ham last time out, running out comfortable 4-1 winners over their rivals.

Selhurst Park is always a difficult place to go but, sadly, supporters in the UK will not be able to watch the game.

The game was initially scheduled for a 3pm BST kick-off time on Saturday 26 October but was pushed back due to Spurs playing in the Europa League on Thursday night.

As a result, it cannot be shown live in the UK, given it was originally meant to take place during the 3pm blackout imposed across English football on Saturday afternoons.
