Graham Roberts believes Tottenham striker Harry Kane will end his August hoodoo against Fulham.
Graham Roberts has backed Tottenham ace Harry Kane to score a hat-trick on Saturday when he lines up against Fulham in the Premier League.
Spurs welcome their London counterparts to temporary home Wembley for a league encounter and the 25-year-old will be desperate to open his goalscoring account for the season.
Kane has remarkably never scored during 14 Premier League games in the month of August, but will have fond memories of facing his upcoming opponents.
The England captain scored a hat-trick in his last meeting with Fulham during an FA Cup third round match in 2017.
Ex-Spurs player Roberts believes history may repeat himself and is backing Kane to end his August drought at the weekend.
“Backing Harry Kane to bury his August goals drought tomorrow can see him scoring a hat-trick,” Roberts wrote on his personal Twitter account.
Kane has won the Premier League golden boot in two of the last three years, but was beaten to that individual accolade by Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah last season.
The centre-forward will be desperate to be back on top this season and will have his eyes on beating newcomers Fulham following their promotion last season.
Spurs kicked off their season with a 2-1 away win over Newcastle United and Mauricio Pochettino’s side will be looking to build some early momentum.
