Both teams drew their last game in the Premier League. That left Tottenham in fifth place with Fulham down in 18th with only West Brom and Sheffield United below them. Tottenham were leaders a couple of weeks ago but now find themselves six points behind Liverpool and with a vastly inferior goal difference. They go into this game having earned just two points from their last four league games,  Draws have come against Crystal Palace and Wolves with losses inflicted on them by Liverpool and Leicester City. Only in the latter of those games did they not concede a goal after the 80th minute. Home form had seen them win three in a row in the Premier League before the defeat by Leicester City. Two clean sheets have been kept in their last three at home. Tottenham play Leeds at home next and Jose Mourinho will be looking for a couple of wins to get them back on track. Failure to do so could just leave them hoping to get a top four finish.

Fulham are battling hard to get out of the bottom three. A point at home to Southampton on Sunday saw them now two points from safety but from a game more than 17th placed Burnley. They have gone five league games without a win but are unbeaten in the last four. All of those last four matches have ended in draws and each of them with under 2.5 goals scored in them. Fulham have only conceded two goals in their last four league games and both of those happened to be penalties.  Away form has already seen them lose four league matches but five of the last six have had under 2.5 goals scored. They travel to Burnley after this game and have other away games against relegation candidates on the horizon.  Tottenham are the favourites to win this game but are hard to trust at present. Any Fantasy Football fans out there will have seen how few points Son and Kane have been getting lately. Until they are back in form, the best bet here is on under 2.5 goals being scored.
