Spurs confirmed team vs Fulham - Solanke out, Kulusevski on bench, Werner starts

Ange Postecoglou has named the Tottenham team that he believes can make it back-to-back wins in the Premier League as they take on Fulham on Sunday.

Spurs' campaign has been dogged by inconsistency and impressive, dominant victories against Manchester City, Manchester United and Aston Villa have been offset by dismal defeats to the likes of Crystal Palace, Ipswich and a second half collapse at Brighton. A win against Marco Silva's Fulham at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday afternoon would bring Postecoglou's men a rare set of back-to-back Premier League triumphs.

Postecoglou continues to be without goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, Micky van de Ven, Richarlison, Wilson Odobert and Mikey Moore, and was set to make a late decision on Cristian Romero.

The Tottenham vice-captain has not made the squad and neither has Dominic Solanke, who was seen arriving at the stadium but is not in the squad.

"He just came in today and he wasn't looking the best. He was under the weather so we sent him home. Hopefully a full recovery and ready to go for the next one," said Maddison.

Postecoglou has made four changes as James Maddison, Destiny Udogie and Yves Bissouma all come back into the side after the midweek draw against Roma as Timo Werner also gets a start. Dejan Kulusevski gets a rest on the bench.

Here's the Tottenham team Postecoglou has chosen to take on the Cottagers on Sunday afternoon:

Forster; Porro, Dragusin, Davies, Udogie; Sarr, Bissouma, Maddison; Johnson, Son, Werner. Subs: Austin, Spence, Gray, Reguilon, Olusesi, Kulusevski, Bergvall, Williams-Barnett, Lankshear.
