Fulhamvs.Spurs

The Lilywhites square up to their capital counterparts on the back of a 3-1 victory over AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League, which sealed a 3-2 aggregate success in the last 16.

Wilson Odobert crucially struck two of Spurs' goals in that victory, and while he also had a small part to play in AZ's strike, he has undoubtedly put his name in the hat for a start on Sunday.

Brennan Johnson and Mathys Tel will have a thing or two to say about that, but Odobert should reprise his role alongside Dominic Solanke and Son Heung-min, who was also especially lively against AZ.

James Maddison and Pape Sarr can expect to link arms in the midfield too, but Lucas Bergvall appeared to be cramping towards the end, so Rodrigo Bentancur could now step back into the XI as he returns from a European ban.

Postecoglou may also err on the side of caution with Micky van de Ven, whom he gave 61 minutes to on Thursday night before sending on Archie Gray, and that change could now occur from the first whistle.

Destiny Udogie for Djed Spence is another change that can be made if Postecoglou wishes to freshen the team up, but there ought to be no respite for Pedro Porro, Cristian Romero and Guglielmo Vicario.

Kevin Danso (hamstring), Radu Dragusin (ACL), Richarlison (calf) and Dejan Kulusevski (foot) are all missing through injury for the visitors.

Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:

Vicario; Porro, Romero, Gray, Udogie; Sarr, Bentancur, Maddison; Odobert, Solanke, Son
