Premier League - Match facts: Fulham v Tottenham Hotspur - Yahoo! Eurosport UK

Fulham have won none of their last seven Premier League matches against Tottenham, losing the last five in a row (W0 D2 L5).

Fulham have scored only two goals in the last seven Premier League meetings with Spurs and one of those was an own goal by Younes Kaboul.

Former Fulham forward Clint Dempsey will come up against his former club, after scoring 50 goals in 184 Premier League appearances for the west Londoners.

Former Tottenham boss Martin Jol goes up against his old club. He enjoyed a win percentage of 42% while at Spurs. He won this fixture as a coach in his first two attempts with Spurs, but has since drawn three and lost one as Spurs manager and lost two in charge of Fulham.

Fulham have won 10 and lost just three of their 16 Premier League games at Craven Cottage in 2012, but have won just one of the last four (W1 D1 L2).

Tottenham have taken the lead in their last two Premier League away games and gone on to lose.

Tottenham have conceded a joint-divisional high 78% of their goals in the second half of games this season (alongside Reading).

Spurs are the only team yet to concede a goal in the opening 15 minutes of a Premier League game this season.

Fulham have hit the target with a higher percentage of shots than any other team in the Premier League (56%).

Gareth Bale is the only player to be booked more than twice for simulation since the start of last season (three times).
