Chris Sutton has made his score prediction as Tottenham Hotspur host Fulham and he does not have high expectations for the match to deliver entertainment.
There is little time to rest for Tottenham Hotspur, who will play a third match in seven days when they take on Fulham this weekend.
Spurs showed signs of improvement in a high scoring Champions League clash against PSG, but the tie ultimately ended in yet another defeat.
Thomas Frank will be eyeing a return to winning ways, but his team’s record at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this season has been nothing short of disastrous.
Chris Sutton predicts Tottenham’s woes to continue
Chris Sutton has made his weekly Premier League predictions and he has some kind words for Spurs after their performance in Europe.
Despite this, the former Blakcburn Rovers striker does not see Tottenham taking three points on Saturday and it is because of their dreadful home form.
He told BBC Sport: “Tottenham played well in their defeat by Paris St-Germain on Wednesday and that makes me think they might have too much for Fulham.

“Marco Silva’s side really needed their win over Sunderland to avoid being dragged into the relegation scrap, and they are still not out of trouble.
“Fulham’s away record is pretty awful but then so is Tottenham’s home form, so the obvious thing to go for here is a draw.
“It’s only taken me four seasons of doing these predictions, but I am finally applying some logic.”
Sutton’s prediction: Tottenham Hotspur 1-1 Fulham
Spurs did not enjoy their last Saturday night kick off
Tottenham will play Fulham at 8pm on Saturday and it is the first time they will take to the pitch at this time since a 1-1 draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers in September.
That match was a low moment for Spurs as a stoppage time goal from Joao Palhinha was required to prevent the visitors from snatching all three points.
Frank will hope to avoid a similar scenario from taking place when Fulham come to North London, but a draw would actually be Tottenham’s best result for a while in fairness.
