Tottenham face Fulham on Thursday evening in what is likely to be a tough game at Craven Cottage.

Spurs looked back to their best against Burnley at the weekend as they dismantles Sean Dyche’s side, and while Fulham sit 18th in the table, Spurs will have to put in another quality performance to get anything here.

Indeed, the relegation candidates may be low in the table, but they’ve lost just one of their last eight games, keeping five clean sheets during that time.

If Spurs are to win here, then Jose Mourinho will have to get his team selection spot on, and with that in mind, we’ve had a go at predicting Tottenham’s starting XI for this one.

It’s not exciting or outlandish by any stretch, but we think Spurs will go unchanged for this one.

The old adage is ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ and we can’t see any reason why Jose Mourinho would change a side that won 4-0 at the weekend.

The squad don’t have any fresh injury concerns, so there are no enforced changes here either.

Of course, there would be the temptation to rotate amid a busy schedule, but due to their recent good form, Fulham may pose a greater threat than Crystal Palace at the weekend.

Dele Alli may feel slightly aggrieved to miss out after his good performance off the bench against Burnley, but Lucas Moura retains his spot in attacking midfield.

Meanwhile, Gareth Bale continues his run of starts after netting twice last week.
