COUPLE OF CORNERS FOR SPURS
Nothing comes of either. It's been a pretty quiet start to the game, with no shots on target at either end.

CORNER TO FULHAM
Castagne combines with Iwobi to win the first corner of the game. Willian's delivery is headed down beyond the far post and forced clear by Spurs.
7'
GOOD DEFENDING BY SPENCE
Willian tries to release the dangerous Robinson on the left side of the area. Spence reads it well, getting in front of Robinson and allowing the ball to run behind for a goalkick.
5'
GOOD BREAK BY FULHAM
Jimenez surges at a backpedalling Spurs defence and pushes the ball to his right for Andreas. He fizzes a cross-shot that flies a few yards wide of the far post.
3'
ALMOST A CHANCE FOR FULHAM
Tel loses the ball in his own half to Castagne, with the ball rolling through to Vicario. For a split-second it looked like Jimenez would collect the loose ball and run through on goal.

DISASTROUS DEBUT FOR DELI
Former Spurs midfielder Dele Alli was sent off 10 minutes after coming on for his Como debut against AC Milan in Serie A. Despite the pleas of his former teammate Kyle Walker, Dele's challenge on Ruben Loftus-Cheek drew a straight red card after a VAR intervention.

WHAT ARE THE ODDS?
Fulham are odds-on favourites to win today's game, with Spurs' chances rated at around 3/1.
13:10
FULHAM STILL IN CHAMPIONS LEAGUE HUNT
While the Europa League is Spurs' priority, Fulham's focus is on playing in Europe next season. They start today's game in 10th place, but it's extremely congested. A win would move them above Bournemouth and Aston Villa into eighth - and only three points off a Champions League place.
