Tottenham v Fulham

  • Match odds:

Before we delve into the specifics of this match from a betting perspective, it would first be beneficial to try and get our heads around exactly why this game is taking place on this Wednesday evening.

Originally, Tottenham were scheduled to face Aston Villa on January 13, but due to an outbreak of Covid-19 at the club, Villa appealed to the Premier League to have the match postponed.

The Premier League agreed, and then asked Fulham, who were scheduled to play Tottenham on December 30, only to be struck down by their own Covid issues, if they could face Spurs on Wednesday instead.

Fulham don't seem too happy about the rearrangement, and possibly wouldn’t have fielded such a strong team in their 2-0 victory over QPR in the FA Cup - which went to extra time - had they known about an upcoming fixture just four days later.

Apparently, the Cottagers were given just two days’ notice, potentially leaving Scott Parker’s side a little underprepared; the Fulham manager has called the decision to bring the fixture forward “scandalous”.
