Tottenham Hotspur supporters will make the jaunt across London later today in the hope that Igor Tudor can finally get a result against Fulham at Craven Cottage.
Spurs travel to west London after nine tries (D4, L5) still seeking their first Premier League win of 2026.

This miserable form became even worse when they were beaten by arch-rivals Arsenal in last weekend’s north London derby.
Tudor was sent to stabilize a rapidly sinking ship. But the Croatia boss admits the task may be far more daunting than he expected after last weekend’s rude awakening.
His introduction to the Premier League couldn’t be tougher, but Tottenham Hotspur’s shocking injury crisis isn’t making his job any easier.
Spurs showed little sign of life on the half-hour mark against Arsenal, with Randall Kolo-Mouani capitalizing on a Declan Rice error to cancel out Eberechi Eze’s opener.

However, the Lilywhites capitulated in typical Spurs fashion, with Eze attacking again in the second half and Victor Jakores also scoring twice to teach the Tudors a painful lesson.
Spurs will start the match against Fulham in 16th place, just four points above the relegation zone.
If Tudor fails to score against Fulham, it will be the first time in more than three decades that Tottenham Hotspur have gone ten consecutive league games without a win.
How to rank Tottenham Hotspur
Guglielmo Vicario certainly wasn’t at his peak against Arsenal but that’s unlikely to cost him his starting spot.
However, there may be some changes ahead of him with Kevin Danso and Pedro Polo returning from a month-long injury layoff.

Danso will join Tudor’s back three alongside Mickey van de Veen and Radu Dragusin, while Polo joins Jade Spence at full-back.
Danso’s return should see Joao Palinha return to midfield, likely to partner Connor Gallagher, Tottenham’s highest-paid player.
Pape Matar Sarr and Xavi Simons should push further forward behind Kolo Muani, who is likely to be rewarded for finally opening his Premier League account at his 19th try.
