Thomas Frank will look to get back on track in the Premier League when Tottenham face Fulham on Saturday.

Tottenham suffered a humiliating 4-1 defeat against Arsenal in the Premier League last Sunday.

Former Tottenham target Eberechi Eze netted a hat-trick in what was a chaotic contest that didn’t surprise many.

Now ninth in the Premier League and looking to advance their position, Spurs will be hoping to issue a response against Marco Silva's side on Saturday.

How Tottenham could line up vs Fulham

Prediction: Tottenham 3-1 Fulham

Tottenham’s form at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has been heavily criticised as of late.

For good reason, too:

Tottenham have won three of their last 20 home games
The Lilywhites have won just one home game this season

However, Spurs’ 5-3 Champions League defeat against PSG showed that Frank is eager to take risks moving forward.

Starting players like Pape Matar Sarr, Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray against the indicated that Frank favoured energy over caution.

This was likely a reaction to his overly-cautious approach against Arsenal.

As a result, fans could expect to see a more direct, energetic Spurs side and because of that Tottenham News predicts a 3-1 victory against Fulham on Sunday.

Either way, with both teams hoping to advance their positions in the Premier League, fans can expect end-to-end action from the first whistle.
