Tottenham vs Fulham Prediction & Betting tips
Football fans in England can look forward to an extremely hot and exciting London derby on Wednesday evening. Tottenham meet Fulham. According to the odds of the best bookmakers, the clear favorite role is with the Spurs, who are positioned significantly higher up in the Premier League table than the guests from the west of the capital.
Nevertheless, caution should be exercised before kick-off at 18:00 p.m., as both coach Jose Mourinho’s team and the Cottagers have recently failed to win four times in a row. While the ambitious hosts suffered two defeats during this period, the relegation-threatened Fulham Football Club had to be content with four straight draws.
Against this background, we do not see a particularly high value between Tottenham and Fulham in the tip on the home win in view of the relatively low prices. On the other hand, it could be more interesting to bet that not too many goals will be scored, because while the Spurs recently struggled to score goals, the newly promoted team also acted rather minimalistically.
Alternatively, it can also make sense in the match Tottenham vs. Fulham give a prediction that the home side will be ahead at halftime. After all, there is no other team in the current Premier League season that was more often ahead at break than the Champions League finalist of 2019. The bottom line is that a balanced and a tight derby can be assumed.
Tottenham :
After eleven match days, Tottenham led the table in the Premier League. At the beginning of December, the Spurs also had the best defense in the country and, along with Liverpool and Chelsea, were the only team to have only had one defeat. Almost exactly three weeks later, the Mourinho-Elf had a lot turned negative.
Because the Lilywhites recently stayed four times in a row without a threesome and only scored two of a possible twelve points during this period, they fell back to seventh place in the ranking. The gap to front runners Liverpool has grown to six points and the success of the offensive dream duo Son / Kane has temporarily come to an abrupt end.
Despite the undiscussed earnings crisis, which was interrupted at least by a sovereign success in the League Cup quarter-finals against second division side Stoke City, Tottenham against Fulham is traded as the clear favorite on Wednesday evening according to the odds. This assessment is not really surprising, because of course the Spurs have more individual quality, the not entirely unimportant lower squad and the home advantage.
This has a positive effect in that Coach Mourinho’s team won two of the last three games in their own stadium against Arsenal and Manchester City. The ambitious Londoners had a hard time against supposedly weaker opponents, which underlines a 3: 3 against West Ham or the 1: 1 against Newcastle. As a result, the prognosis for the home win after 90 minutes should be carefully considered between Tottenham and Fulham.
In our opinion, even a bet on the halftime lead of the favorite is more sustainable. On the one hand, the Spurs are in first place in the separate table for the first 45 minutes. On the other hand, no other team conceded fewer goals than Tottenham in the first round. In eight games, the white and blue were ahead at halftime and only once behind. In three of the last five matches, the Lilywhites always led until the break. With the exception of Lo Celso and the also ailing Gareth Bale, all actors are likely to be available.
Fulham:
For Fulham Football Club it was already clear before the start of the season that 2020/21 would again be all about relegation. In contrast to two years ago, when the Cottagers fell behind very quickly and ultimately had to go straight to the second division without a hitch, the team from the English capital seems at least competitive this season.
However, this does not change the fact that after 15 completed games, there are only eleven meager points on the credit side. Coach Scott Parker’s team was only able to win two matches; eight encounters were lost. Nevertheless, the shape curve pointed in the right direction. Four times in a row, the Londoners did not leave the field as a loser in the Premier League. All four games ended “only” in a draw.
Nonetheless, the Whites presented themselves greatly improved, especially on their own defense. Only two goals conceded in the last four games clearly underline this thesis. However, the relegation candidate must also be credited with the fact that three of the four mentioned matches took place in their own stadium, where the promoted is traditionally a bit stronger.
It is doubtful whether the series of unbeaten games will continue in the derby at Tottenham Hotspur Football Club, especially since the Cottagers are one of the three weakest away teams in the Premier League and have already lost four out of seven guest appearances. A further complicating factor is that the tables 18. likes to wake up late this season.
The Londoners have been behind six times in 2020/21 at halftime; In all six cases there were also bankruptcies. Consequently, the tip on the HT1 / FT1 can be kept in view between Tottenham and Fulham.
With Tete and Kongolo, only two players are expected to be injured. Loan Lemina, who was not allowed to play in the goalless draw against his home club Southampton, will return to the starting line-up, as will striker Mitrovic, who is not yet able to take advantage of Coach Parker’s mostly counterattacking style of play and is therefore lagging behind expectations with only two goals this season.
