Their North London Derby performance was one to forget, falling 4-1 at the Emirates in a match where they struggled to put together even a few passes. However, their midweek display against Champions League holders Paris Saint-Germain was far more spirited. Spurs led twice but defensive lapses proved costly in a chaotic 5-3 loss.<\/p>\n<p>November has been a disappointing month, with Tottenham failing to win any of their league fixtures\u2014two defeats and a draw leaving them in 9th place, level on points with three other teams but ahead on goal difference. Four points behind in 15th are Marco Silva\u2019s Fulham, who arrive following a narrow but unexpected 1-0 win over Sunderland. Before that, Fulham had lost every league game since 21 September apart from a 3-0 victory over bottom-placed Wolves.<\/p>\n<p>Match details<br \/>\nLocation: London, England<br \/>\nStadium: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium<br \/>\nDate: Saturday, 29 November 2025<br \/>\nKick-off: 8pm BST<br \/>\nReferee: Stuart Attwell<br \/>\nVAR: Andy Madley<\/p>\n<p>Head-to-head record<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham have generally enjoyed facing Fulham, winning eight of nine meetings between 2013 and 2023 (1 draw). Recently, the momentum has shifted, with Spurs failing to win any of the last three encounters\u2014two defeats and a draw.<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham team news<\/p>\n<p>Thomas Frank has yet to give a clear return date for Dejan Kulusevski or Dominic Solanke, though both are expected back around the end of the year. Cristian Romero is suspended after receiving his fifth yellow card. Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray made successful returns from injury in midweek and impressed after being thrown straight into the starting XI.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs\u2019 injury list remains lengthy, with Ben Davies, Kota Takai, Yves Bissouma and James Maddison still sidelined. Radu Dragusin could make a late appearance if his recovery progresses smoothly.<\/p>\n<p>Fulham team news<\/p>\n<p>Marco Silva has only two absentees: Antonee Robinson at left-back and Rodrigo Muniz. Aside from them, Fulham travel with a fully available squad.<\/p>\n<p>Predicted Tottenham line-up<\/p>\n<p>Vicario; Porro, Danso, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bergvall, Simons, Palhinha, Gray; Kudus, Kolo Muani<\/p>\n<p>Prediction<\/p>\n<p>Fulham have yet to win away from home in the Premier League this season, while Tottenham have struggled at their own ground throughout 2025, making this an unpredictable contest. Ryan Sessegnon\u2014who scored in this fixture last season\u2014remains a key threat for Fulham, while Spurs\u2019 young midfield duo of Bergvall and Gray will be ones to watch after their strong showing in midweek.<\/p>\n<p>Despite recent inconsistencies, Tottenham may still have enough to claim a vital win.<\/p>\n<p>Predicted score: Tottenham 2-0 Fulham.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tottenham Hotspur head into the weekend determined to avoid a third consecutive defeat in all competitions after a difficult run since the November international break.
