Predicted Spurs XI v Fulham: One change for Mourinho, Dele Alli starts

Add as preferred source on Google

Spurs take on Fulham this evening looking to build on their excellent win over Burnley at the weekend, where Gareth Bale inspired his side to a 4-0 victory.

The Welshman will be hoping to keep his place for the trip to Craven Cottage this evening. Jose Mourinho, however, will be mindful of loading Bale with too many minutes in a short space of time.

That could well mean the Spurs boss makes the odd changes to his startin XI. But there won’t be too much tinkering for Mourinho, who will be keen to give most of the XI against Burnley another crack.

Bale and fellow forward, Lucas Moura, are likely to be the ones replaced if anyone is. Dele Alli is waiting in the wings to get a start, while Erik Lamela has also come off the bench a lot recently.

But we’re tipped Alli to get the nod, with Bale left out, as Mourinho makes just the single change for the trip to Fulham tonight.
