Fulham vs Tottenham preview, kick off time, TV details and prediction

Fulham welcome Tottenham to Craven Cottage on Sunday afternoon in a London derby shaped by urgency and opportunity. For Tottenham, the trip across the capital carries a familiar weight, survival instincts sharpened by a difficult run. For Fulham, the horizon looks brighter, with European ambitions and cup progress still within reach.

Spurs arrive having suffered a chastening 4-1 defeat to Arsenal, Igor Tudor’s first outing as interim head coach. That loss leaves Tottenham hovering four points above the relegation zone, a margin that could shrink depending on results elsewhere. It is a precarious position for a club more accustomed to scanning the table upwards.

Fulham, meanwhile, ended a three match league slide with a 3-1 win over Sunderland. Marco Silva’s side sit within touching distance of the top seven and remain in the FA Cup. Momentum, in these spring weeks, can redraw a season.

Kick off time and TV channel

Fulham vs Tottenham is scheduled for a 2pm GMT kick off on Sunday, March 1, 2026. The fixture takes place at Craven Cottage, a ground that has often felt compact and combustible when local rivals visit.

Supporters in the UK can watch the match live on Sky Sports Premier League, with coverage beginning at 1pm GMT. 

Team news shaping selection

Fulham could be handed a timely lift. Samuel Chukwueze has not featured since the 3-0 loss to Manchester City because of a calf issue, while Sasa Lukic has been absent since mid January with a thigh problem. Both may return to contention. Marco Silva is also expected to provide clarity on Kevin after the Brazilian picked up a knock against Sunderland.

Tottenham have welcomed Pedro Porro and Kevin Danso back into training, offering Tudor options in defence. Cristian Romero serves the penultimate game of his four match suspension. Destiny Udogie, Mohammed Kudus, Dejan Kulusevski and Lucas Bergvall remain sidelined. Dominic Solanke could be restored to the starting line up, while Richarlison’s fitness gives Tottenham renewed attacking flexibility.

Form guide and prediction

Tottenham are still searching for their first Premier League win of 2026 and have lost three consecutive matches. Defensive frailty and uncertainty in midfield have left them vulnerable in key moments. Fulham have been inconsistent, yet at home they tend to play with conviction and clarity.

There is enough evidence to suggest Fulham can capitalise on Tottenham’s unease. Expect Silva’s side to control territory and press intelligently, forcing errors from a Spurs team short on confidence.

Prediction, Fulham 2-1 Tottenham.
