Tottenham will be dealing with several absences for their upcoming match. Key defenders Romero and van de Ven are unavailable, along with French winger Odobert and backup striker Richarlison. Midfielder Bentancur will also be out due to a suspension following controversial remarks made about his teammate Son in a post-match interview.
Additionally, there is uncertainty surrounding the availability of striker Werner. The attacking trio is expected to feature Johnson, who has scored 4 goals in the Premier League, along with Son (3 goals, 3 assists) and Solanke (4 goals). Playmaker Maddison, who has 3 goals and 3 assists, has been used as a substitute in recent games. Tottenham currently holds the best attacking record in the league.
Fulham has seen the return of key midfielder Lukic, but another important player, Reed, has been added to the injury list. Winger Wilson, despite being a substitute, has been in great form, scoring 3 goals in the last 2 matches. Playmaker Smith Rowe, with 3 goals and 2 assists, may start in support of Mexican striker Raul Jimenez (4 goals, 2 assists), while Nigerian winger Iwobi (2 goals, 2 assists) is also available.
Prediction
Tottenham has been outstanding at home, winning 17 of their last 20 matches, making them a tough opponent at their stadium. On the other hand, Fulham has struggled away from home, losing 14 of their last 21 away matches, including a defeat to Tottenham earlier this year.
Prediction: Tottenham 2-1 Fulham.
