Fulham are in trouble in the relegation zone in the Premier League, starting the afternoon seven points adrift of safety. The Cottagers cannot afford for the gap to widen, putting the team under huge pressure to force a surprise result or two to haul themselves back up the table. Claudio Ranieri's men have won only one out of their last nine top-flight matches. A response is required against Spurs.
Tottenham suffered a disappointing 1-0 defeat last time out at the hands of Manchester United, while Harry Kane suffered an ankle injury that could rule him out until March. Spurs will have to continue battling on four fronts without their talisman. Their loss to United has knocked them well off the pace for the title, with a win needed to reaffirm their standing for a top-four finish.
Fulham take a 1-0 lead into the break over Tottenham thanks to Fernando Llorente's own goal. The Spaniard returned to the fold due to Harry Kane's absence, but has endured a nightmare opening 45 minutes. Llorente first diverted Jean Michael Seri's corner into his own net before missing a close-range header that would have atoned for his error. Tottenham have struggled for a clinical edge against the worst defence in the Premier League, which will be a huge concern for Mauricio Pochettino.
Claudio Ranieri will be thrilled with his side's performance in the opening 45 minutes. They've been solid enough at the back, while providing a threat at the other end. The Cottagers should be further ahead, with Ryan Babel, Denis Odoi and Andre Schurrle all missing good opportunities. The Italian will be hoping that those misses do not come back to haunt his team.
Fulham have nine days off until their next Premier League outing against Brighton & Hove Albion on home soil, which is a must-win game. Tottenham play Chelsea in the second leg of their EFL Cup semi-final clash on Thursday.
Thanks for joining our commentary today. Until next time, goodbye.
