Spurs Face Empty Seats Amid Relegation Fears

Tottenham Hotspur expects empty seats for their crucial relegation battle against Crystal Palace as high ticket prices and poor performances deter fans.

Tottenham Hotspur faces potential empty stands for Thursday's crucial match against Crystal Palace, with thousands of tickets still available despite the fixture's significance in their fight against relegation. The club sits just four points above the drop zone after Sunday's 2-1 defeat at Fulham.

Factors contributing to the sparse ticket sales include Spurs' poor recent form, high ticket prices, and the 8pm Thursday kickoff time. The Tottenham Hotspur Supporters' Trust has urged fans to rally behind the team during this challenging period, with the club opening its ticket exchange to help supporters resell unused seats.
