Tottenham Hotspur v Crystal Palace remains on Saturday 31 October 2026 but kicks off at 17:30 GMT, with live UK coverage on Sky Sports. This is Tottenham’s home London derby against Palace, not the previous weekend’s away visit to Chelsea.

What changed in the fixture?
The date stays Saturday 31 October; the start time moves to the evening television slot. Tottenham’s October notice lists both the Chelsea away derby and the Palace home derby at 17:30, one week apart. Check the opponent as well as the clock time when choosing a match recording.
Sky Sports and kick-off time
The club and Premier League both name Sky Sports for the UK broadcast. Select the programme for Tottenham versus Crystal Palace in your provider’s guide. The published 17:30 time is kick-off, not a guarantee that studio coverage starts then.
US viewers: the temporary four-hour difference
For this Saturday, 17:30 GMT is 13:30 Eastern or 10:30 Pacific. The UK and US change their clocks on different weekends, so a routine five-hour UK–Eastern conversion would be wrong for this fixture. A Sky Sports subscription in Britain does not establish which US service has the match.
Which Palace meeting is this?
Use 31 October 2026 and Tottenham as the home team when checking tickets or replay listings. Searches can also return previous seasons and the teams’ return fixture. Confirmed starting players are not yet available; this is a broadcast and date guide, not a predicted line-up.
