Tottenham vs Fulham Prediction

Right then, let's get down to business with this London derby! Tottenham sitting in 9th with 18 points while Fulham are struggling down in 15th on 14 points. Looking at the recent form, Spurs have been a bit up and down - got hammered 4-1 by Arsenal but showed some quality with that 4-0 thumping of Copenhagen and 3-0 win over Everton. The home form has been dodgy though, only winning 25% of their last 4 at home.

Fulham? Ja, they're a different beast at home versus away. At home they've been solid with wins against Sunderland and Wolves, but on the road? Ag no man, it's been a disaster! Zero wins in their last 5 away games, and they're leaking goals like a sieve - 2.2 per game away from home. Recent away losses include 2-0 at Everton, 2-1 at Newcastle, and 3-1 at both Bournemouth and Aston Villa. Not great reading for the Fulham faithful!

The head-to-head tells an interesting story though - Spurs are unbeaten at home against Fulham (2W-2D-0L). Last time these two met, Fulham nicked it 2-0, but that was away from home.

When you look at the numbers, Spurs are scoring 1.75 goals per game at home while Fulham are shipping 2.2 per game on their travels. That's a recipe for goals, my friend! Both teams tend to find the net too - 40% BTTS for Spurs, 50% for Fulham.

The goal expectancy is sitting at 3.0 total goals, and with Fulham's defensive woes on the road, I'm backing this one to go over 2.5 goals. Spurs should score at least a couple at home, and Fulham might grab one too given how both teams tend to concede.
