Tottenham Hotspur vs Fulham
English Premier League, KO: 15:00 Sep 3, 2022, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
SPURS welcome Fulham to North London for another London derby after both sides were in midweek action.
For Tottenham Hostpur, their season has started very encouragingly after three wins and two draws, although they failed to hold onto a lead at West Ham United on Wednesday in another all-London affair.
Previously, their determination to get an undeserved point at Chelsea a couple of matches ago shows they are not going to be the soft touches they have been accused of being in past seasons.
They also have a very good home record and will be expected to see off the newly-promoted fellow capital side.
Fulham were many punters' tip to go down, but the Craven Cottage side don't appear to have read the script. Their excellent win against a high-flying Brighton side on Tuesday was a real eye-opener and remember how close they came to beating Liverpool on Day One.
They also narrowly lost at Arsenal and have defeated Brentford, but they do tend to reserve their best performances for home matches in West :London and even lost away in the Carabao Cup to Crawley Town, although that was with a weakened team.
How the bookies view it
Spurs are very much good things here and the 5/11 on offer from SBK is the best price in town. Fulham can be backed at 6/1 by bet365. The draw is 9/2 with Betfred.

Players to watch
Harry Kane has started the season in predictably lethal fashion with four goals already. However, he's odds-on across the board and 5/6 witb bet365 is the closest you will get to evens.
Aleksandar Mitrovic was absolutely lethal last season in the Championship and he's already shown the step-up won't be a problem this time with five goals in five games so far. He is attractively priced at 13/5 to net on Saturday with bet365.
Anything else catch the eye?
Four of Fulham's five league games has seen over 2.5 goals go in and with Spurs too short to back on their own for what should be an expected victory. a home win and over 2.5 goals is a decent shout at 11/10 with Boylesports.
