Tottenham’s relegation fears deepened after a 2-1 defeat at Fulham equalled their longest Premier League winless run.

Spurs substitute Richarlison gave the visitors hope of a second-half comeback, but first-half goals from Harry Wilson and Alex Iwobi meant Tottenham are now without victory in 10 top-flight games.

Spurs, who are winless in 2026, remain 16th and just four points above the drop zone with 10 games left.

Spurs' loss in west London highlights the huge job new head coach Igor Tudor has on his hands as he became just the second Tottenham boss to lose his first two games in charge.

But Fulham are heading in the opposite direction under Marco Silva, with the Cottagers firmly in the hunt for a European spot after back-to-back wins put them ninth.

Fulham should have won more comfortably after Emile Smith Rowe missed two glorious second-half chances, but they survived a nervy ending set up by Richarlison's 66th-minute header.

Tudor went 4-4-2 in west London, but Fulham immediately preyed on Tottenham's vulnerability as Wilson struck a seventh-minute opener.

Spurs were unhappy with the goal as they felt Radu Dragusin was pushed in the back by Fulham striker Raul Jimenez in the build-up to the goal, but VAR deemed the contact "did not meet the threshold for a foul".

Tottenham's nightmare first half, in which they failed to have a shot on target, worsened when Iwobi hit a superb 34th-minute goal as he arrowed a ball from distance into the bottom far corner off the post.

Spurs substitutes Mathys Tel and Richarlison sparked a second-half improvement from Tudor's side as the former set Archie Gray up for his cross that led to Richarlison's goal.

But Tottenham's wretched form continues, having now won only two of their last 19 Premier League matches.

Rob Green at Craven Cottage:

"It is a nightmare start for Spurs - it is an empathic finish, what a season Wilson is having.

"Is it a push? There is no real foul there, i cannot see this being overturned..."

Well, that didn't take long!!

It's a brilliant finish from Harry Wilson, who gets a perfect connection on Oscar Bobb's deflected cross, but the Spurs players are adamant Raul Jimenez pushed Radu Dragusin in the build-up...

VAR is taking a look...

Tottenham boss Igor Tudor speaking to Sky Sports:

"It's very difficult in a short period to work on a lot of things, because a lot of things are not good. You need to focus on the main things, on the things they can immediately give something.

"The problems are not to comment on outside. The problems we will resolve at home, in the dressing room, in training during the week. The key is the players understand the situation, they have the availability to do something more

"We worked good. I'm happy with what I saw during the week. We worked on a lot of things.

"We want to come here to make one good performance, to see the team doing better in both sides. Mentality also is important. I believe that today will be a good game from us."

Brighton vs Nottingham Forest, Sunday 2pm, live on Sky Sports

Elliot Anderson has been nudged further forward under new boss Vitor Pereira - and the player himself has admitted the message is clear: more end product, more presence in the final third and importantly for us more shots.

Music to the ears of anyone who plays in the player-prop markets.

If you factor in the super-sub concession, he's fired off 17 shots across his last four appearances. For a player who, earlier in the season, was often stationed deeper and tasked with linking play rather than finishing it the algorithms that price the shots markets are lagging behind this positional tweak.

At 11/8 with Sky Bet for two or more shots, the line feels based on Anderson's old role, not his new one.

SCORE PREDICTION: 1-2

Fulham vs Tottenham, Sunday 2pm, live on Sky Sports

The relegation alarm bells are sounding for Tottenham, who are now 5/1 to be a Championship team next season.

With 11 games to go, that's real money being matched. We're no longer discussing the unthinkable. We're discussing the plausible.

They're in enormous danger.

And what should worry everyone associated with the club most, isn't just the results, it's the identity crisis. They look caught between philosophies and styles. There's an injury situation that's bitten hard. And when the pressure has gone up, the response hasn't been there so far.

Going down? Why relegation is a real risk for Spurs

Fulham have won all five of their Premier League games against bottom-five sides this season. They've also won the last two Premier League meetings with Spurs.

And this is the key point: Fulham know exactly who they are. Structured. Aggressive in the right moments. Calm in possession. Against a side operating like a bottom-three team, at home, that's massive.

Do Spurs have the stomach for this? The mentality? The scrap? Because right now, all the underlying indicators say no. Fulham at Evens with Sky Bet looks good to me.

SCORE PREDICTION: 3-1

Manchester United vs Crystal Palace, Sunday 2pm, live on Sky Sports

This is one of those scheduling spots where Manchester United being out of Europe gives them a huge advantage. Oliver Glasner has developed a very clear pattern. When there's a knockout game in Europe, everything goes into it. Emotionally, tactically, physically, the dial gets turned up. The issue? The league game that follows often pays the price.

Across the last eight league fixtures immediately after a midweek knockout match, Glasner's teams have lost six, drawn one and won just once. And even that victory - against Wolves last weekend - had more than a whiff of fortune about it. Fine margins went their way.

Now they head to face Manchester United who have started to find some rhythm. There's been more purpose in their attacking play. At 11/8 with Sky Bet for Manchester United to win by two or more goals, you're getting a price that doesn't fully account for a predicted post-Europe wobble from Palace.

SCORE PREDICTION: 4-0

Arsenal vs Chelsea, Sunday 4.30pm, live on Sky Sports

This fixture for Arsenal is one of only two remaining in the Premier League against another current top six opponent. The other is the trip to Manchester City in April.

Chelsea tend to raise their game when faced with a big fixture but Arsenal's defensive process is just too reliable to ignore when assessing the prices for this encounter. Arsenal's underlying process remains the best in the league by a fair way with goals being conceded because of mistakes or low probability shots going in from distance.

Joao Pedro thriving as Chelsea's No 9 - The Radar

The last open-play Premier League goal they conceded inside the box that didn't come from an individual error was Ollie Watkins' consolation for Aston Villa on December 30. That's nine games ago.

They haven't allowed a properly constructed, carved-open, inside-the-box goal in that time. That is elite defensive control. The classic bet of Arsenal to win and under 3.5 goals at 11/8 with Sky Bet, which has landed in seven of their last 11 home Premier League matches, has a fine chance of landing.

SCORE PREDICTION: 2-0
