Tottenham Hotspur is desperate for a positive result on Saturday afternoon, as the club prepares to cap off Saturday’s English Premier League slate with a clash against Fulham.
The Spurs are just a few days removed from a tough battle in UEFA Champions League play against the defending champions, Paris Saint-Germain. The club is hoping to put recent league results behind them, as Tottenham has gone from a potential top-four team to one that is stumbling down the table.
The Spurs lost last weekend in a rough North London derby, falling 4-1 to Arsenal last Sunday. Tottenham has gone winless in three consecutive EPL contests, and four of the team’s last five.
Fulham has been unable to find consistency to stay in the upper half of the table and is now becoming part of the relegation conversation. Yet, the Cottagers are doing what they need to do to stay out of the bottom three, winning two of their past three matches, including a 1-0 win over Sunderland last weekend.
The Spurs are ninth in the EPL, three points out of fourth place. Fulham is 15th in the table, three points ahead of 18th-place Leeds.
