With Tottenham Hotspur sliding down the table after a poor return from the World Cup, Antonio Conte is expected to make changes against Fulham as we aim to call their predicted line-up.
Spurs suffered a brutal defeat to Manchester City recently, fumbling a 2-0 lead at half-time to eventually lose 4-2 to Pep Guardiola’s side.
Now, Conte and his side will hope to get back to winning ways on Monday night.
Tottenham Hotspur predicted line-up vs Fulham
Hugo Lloris is set to keep his place in the side, despite being at fault for Riyad Mahrez’s winner for Manchester City.
At right wing-back, Emerson Royal, who scored an unexpected goal against City is likely to be replaced by the more attack-minded Matt Doherty in our Tottenham predicted lineup against Fulham.
The back 3 could see one change, with Clement Lenglet coming in for Ben Davies due to his expansive passing range against Fulham, who look set to favour a defensive approach.
Eric Dier and Cristian Romero seem undroppable at this point, on the other hand.
Despite Ivan Perisic getting torn to shreds by Riyad Mahrez, the Croatian could get a chance to redeem himself against Fulham, as per our Tottenham Hotspur predicted lineup.
The midfield duo of Pierre Emile-Hojbjerg and Rodrigo Bentancur could retain their places, as the pair remain the few consistent performers for Antonio Conte.
At right-wing, Dejan Kulusevski, who was perhaps Spurs’ best player against the Premier League champions could start again, with Bryan Gil watching the Swede in action from the bench.
Harry Kane, who is reportedly open to sign a new contract is the club’s first name on the team sheet (as per the Athletic), week in, week out and that is not expected to change for Monday’s meeting.
The same cannot be said for the underperforming Son Heung-min, who was once called ‘fantastic’ by Jose Mourinho. Richarlison could well be drafted into the team in our Tottenham predicted lineup against Fulham, after Antonio Conte praised Richarlison for his ‘nasty’ streak (via Football.London) recently.
Tottenham Hotspur predicted line-up vs Fulham: Lloris, Doherty, Romero, Dier, Lenglet, Perisic, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Kulusevski, Kane, Richarlison.
