Lineups, team news, confirmed starting teams as Tel starts for Spurs

Fulham will move eighth in the Premier League if Marco Silva’s side beat Tottenham at Craven Cottage in the Premier League on Sunday.

Victory would lift The Cottagers three points behind fourth-placed Manchester Cityalthough they will be wary of a Tottenham side who have only been outscored by runaway leaders Liverpool in this season’s top flight.

Midtable Tottenham start the afternoon level on 34 points with Everton, Manchester United and West Ham and buoyed by their Europa League last-16 triumph at home to AZ Alkmaar on Thursday.
