Tottenham boss Antonio Conte feels their clash at Fulham on Monday will be a mental challenge.
Fulham are in form, have won four of their last five, including victory over Chelsea last time out at Craven Cottage, and sitting seventh, two points behind Spurs in fifth.
“You have to build the game against Fulham and to keep in consideration the first half,” said Conte. “Then, give consideration to the second half and you have to take the positive situation and the negative situation.
“I watched the game in the second half, but they (City) shot four times and they scored four times. They didn’t dominate the game, or we suffered to stay behind with a lot of chances for them. The game was really, really balanced. When we were 2-2, we had a massive, massive chance to go 3-2 and I think also it could be a different situation.
“I have to analyse the situation. In the last two games we played against the first and the second. In my opinion, we showed we can play and get good results but, at the same time, there are a lot of situations that we have to improve, otherwise you don’t lose both games.
“In the Premier League, it’s full of difficult games. We have to stick together, to fight, to understand that the situation won’t be easy. If we go there with this personality and we pay more attention, we use what happened (at City) to improve the team, I think we can get a good result.”
