Tottenham Hotspur is looking to claim the top spot of the league table with a win over Fulham FC, in an important clash. These two teams are actually far from each other when it comes to the league table, which is not surprising. The Spurs are currently at the fourth of the league table with 20 points, following their impressive campaign this season. On the other hand, Fulham is at the 13th of the league table with just 11 points, failing to be as impressive. Additionally, these two teams already had history against each other, playing 103 matches already. From those matches, Spurs has the advantage, winning 54 matches, while Fulham only have 19 wins. This meeting is on October 24, 2023, at 3:00 AM (GMT+8).
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham remain the team to beat in the Premier League under Australian manager, Postecoglou. He was awarded Manager of the Month for his September performance. Despite an unfortunate first-half, Micky van de Ven’s goal against James Maddison secured a victory. This brings Tottenham to the second international break of the season with 20 points. However, results elsewhere could potentially drop Tottenham as low as fourth before the London derby. The only points dropped this season have come against Brentford and Arsenal. This match is huge for the Spurs, as they could claim the top of the league table with a win here. This makes them eager to score a win in this match.
Despite the scares following their international duty, Son Heung-min, and Cristian Romero remains to be available for the Spurs. Additionally, Brennan Johnson could also return here, after suffering a hamstring injury. Meanwhile, Sessegnon, Solomon, Perisic, and Whiteman all remains to be unavailable in this match due to their injuries. Bissouma is also unavailable here, as he needs to be sidelined for a one-game suspension.
Fulham FC
Fulham’s 3-1 victory over Sheffield United overshadowed a leg injury to Blades defender Chris Basham. Fulham turned up the heat in the second half, scoring goals from Bobby Decordova-Reid and Willian, and an unfortunate Wes Foderingham own goal. Antonee Robinson joined Foderingham in the own-goals club, but Fulham continued their sequence of winning one then failing to win one. They are currently ranked 12th in the table, with only one win from four away games in the 2023-24 season. Fortunately, Fulham ended a nine-game winless run against Tottenham. They were able to hold their nerve from 12 yards in the EFL Cup. However, only one over the Lilywhites in the top flight since a 1-0 triumph in the last knockings of the 2012-13 season.
Following Issa Diop’s injury on their previous match, he is now unavailable in this match, due to a foot injury. He will be joined by Kenny Tete, and Adama Traore, who are both suffering form their injuries as well, keeping them on the sidelines.
