Tottenham vs Fulham Preview - 23/10/2023 - Premier League
Tottenham and Fulham will face off in a Premier League match at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on October 23, 2023.
Spurs, under the management of Ange Postecoglou, are on an impressive unbeaten streak of nine games, comprising six wins and three draws. This remarkable start represents the best unbeaten run by any manager in the club's history.
Additionally, in all eight of their league matches, the Premier League table leaders have scored two or more goals, setting a Premier League record as no other team has achieved this feat in their manager's first eight games.
Meanwhile, the Cottagers began the season strongly, but the team later encountered a series of setbacks. After eight matches, Marco Silva's team has accumulated eleven points and currently occupies the 12th position in the league standings.
It's worth noting that at the end of the previous season, the team finished in the top ten, but their performance in the current season is slightly less impressive.

Tottenham vs Fulham Team News
Tottenham are optimistic about the potential return of two key players, Heung-min Son and Cristian Romero, as they undergo assessments following their international duties. The 31-year-old sensation has been grappling with a groin injury, and his discomfort during his appearance in South Korea raised concerns. Likewise, Romero suffered an ankle injury while representing Argentina.
However, both players are anticipated to recover in time for the upcoming match against Fulham. Unfortunately, Yves Bissouma will be unavailable due to suspension, but there's a chance that Brennan Johnson could make an appearance. Fortunately, there haven't been any reports of new injuries to other team members.
On the other side, Tosin Adarabioyo, who has previously been linked with a transfer to Spurs, will remain sidelined for Fulham as he continues his recovery from groin surgery.
