Chris Sutton has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur will have some bumps in the road sooner rather than later but added that it will not come against Fulham on Monday night, backing the Lilywhites to breeze past the Cottagers.
After two tough fixtures against Arsenal and Liverpool, and having to play with ten men for an entire half at Kenilworth Road over recent weeks, Spurs will welcome the chance to take on Fulham back at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Monday night.
The Lilywhites could potentially be in with a chance of extending their lead at the top of the Premier League table, with Arsenal having to travel to Stamford Bridge tomorrow.
Tottenham will have to do without Yves Bissouma, who is suspended for the clash against Fulham after his red card against Luton Town, but Sutton believes that Postecoglou’s men will simply have too much firepower for the West London side.

What will the score be in Tottenham vs Fulham?
The former Celtic striker told BBC Sport: “I should maybe be a bit worried about this game for Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou because he has won two manager of the month awards now.
“And we all know what usually happens when someone wins one – they lose their next game! Fulham have already knocked Spurs out of the Carabao Cup on penalties this season too, but that was at Craven Cottage and I am pretty confident that Spurs will win this one at home.
“What I like about Spurs so far this season is that things have not always gone their way in games, but they have still found a way to win. They did that against Luton last time out, missing a lot of early chances then going down to 10 men. I was thinking they were up against it, but they still got three points.
“Spurs will still have bumps in the road this season, and I don’t know how much longer their unbeaten start in the league will last, but I am not expecting it to end this weekend. They are playing with so much confidence and Fulham won’t be able to keep them out.”
Prediction: Tottenham 3-1 Fulham
Spurs Web Opinion
There are no easy games in the Premier League and I am sure that Ange Postecoglou would not allow the players to take this fixture lightly. We need to match Fulham’s effort on the day and our quality will hopefully shine through.
