Defender - Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Fulham ($4,500)

Fulham are already without Tim Ream and Alfie Mawson, but now it looks like Joe Bryan is going to miss this weekend's match against Tottenham. That likely means that Maxime Le Marchand ($5,500) will get pushed to an outside back role paving the way for Fosu-Mensah to come in at center back. Fosu-Mensah is on loan with Fulham and was brought in for just this type of situation.

With the Fulham back line in such disarray, Tottenham ought to have their way with the ball. Don't look at last week's stats as a precursor for this week as Fulham dominated possession against a Crystal Palace team that likes to sit back. Tottenham had close to 60% possession in their match and they have the attacking talent that wants the ball at their feet. That means plenty of clearance and tackle opportunities for Fosu-Mensah.

Make sure to check the Fulham lineup before the match as the back line has a lot of moving parts currently. However, they will be under pressure and rack up defensive action points.
