I personally would sell the Spurs ticket, too many variables in getting across town. Use the money to spend in and around the ground before a London derby.

The Spurs tickets will not have been cheap, seems a shame to only see half a match then be in a tearing rush.

I found other solution:

leaving white hart lane stadium to white hart lane station 16:42-16:47

white hart lane station - seven sisters 16:47-16:51

seven sisters - london bridge 16:53- 17:15 (Through EustongreenPark)

london bridge - norwood junction 17:20-17:33

norwood junction - selhurst park 17:33-17:38 (running).

get to my seat 17:40.

That means I see 85 min of spurs game and 80 min of palace game.
seems to be the best option although crystal palace game was much important to me.

It might be useful to remember that trains from Victoria to Selhurst stop at Thornton Heath a couple of minutes earlier. Cheers

This looks good on paper, but I doubt it will work.
Firstly give yourself more than 5 minutes (10 at least) to get from your seat to White Hart Lane Station.
Secondly you won't be able to get from Seven Sisters main line station to Seven Sisters underground station in 2 mins.
You will not make 16:53 at Seven Sisters (next 16:59) which means that you won't make 17:20 at London Bridge.

well about leaving the stadium I am not worried. I will exit 5 min before then.
How much it will be from seven sisters main station to underground station?

maybe will be better to run from white hart lane stadium to seven sisters?

Use citymapper, tends to be more reliable for this kind of thing than planning yourself. Have done your journey below:

Would be interested in an update on this after Saturday to see how you got on. I would wager that that you would be lucky to watch first 45 minutes of Spurs game and 2nd 45 minutes of the Palace game going by car or London Transport. Spurs to Selhurst is a horrible journey at the best of times let alone a Saturday.
