Spurs v Fulham – how to watch, team news, key information
Tue 12 January 2021, 22:32|
Tottenham Hotspur
We return to Premier League action after recently switching our attentions to both the Carabao Cup and FA Cup, with Fulham our opponents for a rearranged meeting at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Wednesday, kick-off 8.15pm UK.
We had initially been due to welcome the Cottagers to N17 at the end of December but with our scheduled trip to Aston Villa postponed this week, we’ll now play Scott Parker’s men instead.
Of course, Scott made 63 appearances for us as a central midfielder between 2011 and 2013 and spent a season as our Under-18s Coach in 2017/18.

How will the teams line up?
Giovani Lo Celso remains unavailable through injury, although Erik Lamela and Steven Bergwijn could return, with both having missed the FA Cup trip to Marine at the weekend.
“Honestly, I think only Gio Lo Celso is out,” Jose Mourinho told Spurs TV ahead of training on Tuesday.
“Apart from that, I believe maybe Bergwijn, maybe Lamela... maybe they have a chance to be back.”
Fulham boss Scott Parker, meanwhile, has no fresh injury concerns coming out of the Cottagers’ 2-0 win at QPR in the FA Cup.
Who is the referee and what colours will the teams be playing in?
Paul Tierney is scheduled to referee Wednesday night’s fixture, assisted by Lee Betts and Harry Lennard. Chris Kavanagh is the fourth official.
We’ll be in our usual home kit, with our goalkeeper in orange.
Fulham will play in all yellow, with their keeper in dark grey.
What will the weather be like?
Heavy rain is forecast in Tottenham for much of the day on Wednesday, including into the evening when the game takes place. Temperatures are expected to be around five degrees.
