Match Preview: Fulham Vs Spurs

TEAM NEWS

Fulham have a fully-fit squad for Sunday’s FA Cup tie, with Tomas Kalas available after a hip problem.

Former Tottenham youngster Ryan Fredericks is the only absentee as he must complete a three-match ban.

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino believes Jan Vertonghen could be fit enough to return after missing six games with ankle ligament damage.

Harry Kane suffered a minor knee injury in Thursday’s defeat at Gent and is unlikely to be involved.

WHAT THE MANAGERS SAY

Fulham head coach Slavisa Jokanovic: “This competition is famous for its surprises. It’s a fantastic chance for us, and isn’t a moment for us to surrender.

“We don’t need any further motivation. I will choose the best XI for the game in front of us. It’s one of the top Premier League teams and isn’t a time to experiment.”

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino: “We need to assess some players. Harry Kane got a knock in his knee and different players maybe. If we need to refresh the team we will do.

“We will put out a team that aims to win and we will be ready again to compete.”
