Tottenham make the short trip to west London to take on Fulham in a London Derby at Craven Cottage on Saturday evening and will be looking to make it another away day success after their emphatic 4-0 victory at Aston Villa last time out.

Ange Postecoglu’s side are 2^nd top scorers away from home with 30 goals from their 13 away matches and are still the only side to have scored in every single Premier League match so far this campaign.

The graphic below shows Spurs ranked 2^nd only behind Arsenal for goals scored away from home, with an average of 2.31 goals per match.

Spurs will be looking to continue their pursuit of 4^th place and the elusive Champions League qualification when they take on Marco Silva’s men and have won 16 of the previous 24 meetings between the teams, including a 2-0 triumph when the sides met at The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium earlier in the season.

Fulham have failed to win in 4 of their last 6 games at home and face a free-scoring Spurs side, with 26 of Tottenham’s 27 Premier League matches (96%) producing over 1.5 goals, the highest out of all teams.

The graphic below shows Tottenham ranked 1^st for the highest number of  matches producing over 1.5 goals so far this term.

SpreadEx are offering 2.30 on a Spurs win and over 1.5 match goals. With Silva’s team losing 5 of their 14 league games on home turf they might find it a difficult task to stop Tottenham from taking all three points in this one.

Son Heung-Min to score anytime is another market which looks intriguing, with the South Korean netting in his last two games and scoring against Fulham in the reverse fixture earlier in the campaign.

Bet365 offering 2.37 on Son to find the back of the net during the game looks attractive, especially given he is the joint 4^th top scorer in the Premier League with 14 goals from 24 appearances.

Coupled with the current goal scoring form of Postecoglu’s men this one could well pay dividends come the end of the game.
