Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips for Fulham vs. Tottenham at English Premier League
Fulham lost to the Wolves at Molineux last weekend, but that failure didn’t hurt them too much. For the moment, the Cottagers are in the middle of the standings, safe from all the relegation troubles. Tottenham is back in the saddle, having a chance to reclaim the fourth spot and the ticket to the UEFA Champions League. If there weren’t so many injuries, we are pretty sure that the Spurs would be in the mix for the title.
Fulham
Three wins and two losses in the past five Premier League matches is an okay record for the Cottagers, who didn’t have such high hopes before the season began. After selling Aleksandar Mitrovic to Saudi Arabia, this team was all about surviving in the league, and they are doing well right now.
Fulham’s matches are much more efficient than before, and the past six are proof of that. All saw over 2.5 goals, while five ended with both teams netting along the way.
Fulham’s performances are highly unstable when playing at Craven Cottage, and the previous five results reveal everything—two wins, two losses, and one tie. We included the defeat against Newcastle in the FA Cup.
Tottenham
We’ve said it before, and we will say it again: It is a great regret that Tottenham didn’t have a bit more luck with injuries. We would probably watch them fight for the title, not fourth place.
The Spurs beat Aston Villa on the road this Sunday, 0-4, which brought them back into the UCL race. The way they demolished the Villains was impressive, not just because of a road win, but because Villa is their main rival in the battle for the fourth position.
Eight of their last ten meetings ended with three or more goals, and six of those saw at least four hits. It’s safe to say things are interesting each time the Spurs appear on the field.
Fulham: Leno; Castagne, Adarabioyo, Bassey, Robinson; Palhinha, Reed; Wilson, Pereira, Willian; Muniz
Tottenham: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Bissouma; Kulusevski, Maddison, Werner; Son

Tottenham was better in the opening match of the season, defeating Fulham 2-0 at the London Stadium. Though, there was one more meeting between these two units earlier, in the opening stages of the EFL Cup. It took place at Craven Cottage, and the regular 90 minutes ended without winners, 1-1. Fulham had more luck during the penalties, and they won.
Fulham is unstable, but their matches bring goals, and so do Tottenham’s. The best pick here would be over 2.5 hits, not only because of the previous events and high efficiency but also the fact that, more or less, these squads like to play open and offensive-minded football.
Our verdict: Over 2.5 goals
