Spurs v Fulham: Line-ups, stats and preview

Preview for Spurs v Fulham

Tottenham head back to London after a promising display in defeat in Paris in midweek and face another London derby against Fulham in the Premier League.

Thomas Frank’s side were abject in defeat to rivals Arsenal but will hope that their attacking performance against Champions League holders PSG means they can get back to winning ways against the Cottagers.

Spurs head into the weekend in ninth place but could move up into the European places with a win in a congested Premier League table.

Fulham beat Sunderland last time out after a tough run of results and have won two of their last three Premier League games against Spurs, as many as they had in their previous 23.

Could they pull off another win in the late game?

Team News for Spurs v Fulham

Tottenham were much improved in midfield in midweek thanks largely to the energy of young midfield duo Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall.

Will Frank stick with them or recall Joao Palhinha against his old club? Defender Cristian Romero will definitely miss out as he is suspended.

Sasa Lukic is back from a ban of his own for Fulham and should start in midfield, while Antonee Robinson remains out with his knee injury.
