Mohammed Kudus will be intent on playing a starring role as Tottenham look to make it three Premier League wins on the spin this weekend.

Following impressive back-to-back victories over Coventry City and Chelsea, Roberto De Zerbi's team are on home soil on Saturday evening as Crystal Palace make the trip across the capital.

Given Spurs' upturn in form, coupled with Palace's poor start to the campaign, the north London club have a real opportunity to build even more momentum and move into the top half of the table in the process.

With Mathys Tel in the limelight last Saturday evening following his stunning strike at Stamford Bridge, this week it will be fellow winger Kudus looking to grab the headlines and really get his season up and running.

Showing his quality in the opening few months of last term before injury severely disrupted his season, the Ghanian is looking to make up for lost time and become a key player in De Zerbi's team.

The winger did come in for plenty of praise from his boss last weekend following his role in the Chelsea win.

De Zerbi claimed that "we won the game with two wingers" and that Kudus and Tel essentially "made the difference" on the day.

Kudus deserves praise for his recent displays and the good news for Spurs is that there is even more to come from him.

The player has two assists to his name so far this season and now it is about adding the goals to his game in his bid to become a major force in this Tottenham team.

Tottenham have plenty of options in attack, which of course is great for De Zerbi when it comes to getting the very best out of his players, and it means that Kudus has to produce week in, week out to ensure he maintains his place in the starting XI.

After a lot of frustration last term with his season ending prematurely in January, all Tottenham fans will be keeping their fingers crossed that this is Kudus' time to shine and he explodes into life.

Kudus can flourish under De Zerbi

It is clear to see that De Zerbi rates Kudus incredibly highly after previously trying to sign him for Brighton & Hove Albion.

The opportunity for the pair to finally work together is a very exciting one and one that should whet the appetite of all Tottenham fans.

Speaking in his pre-match press conference ahead of the Everton game in September, De Zerbi heaped praise on his player and revealed his previous interest in him.

"I think very close to being ready to start the game," said the Italian. "An amazing thing for me. I wanted Mo Kudus when I was in Brighton. I pushed a lot to bring him before he went to West Ham.

"He can play as a winger, as a number 10 and as a striker also and he is amazing player."
