Only Brighton's players have been fouled more regularly than Tottenham's this season and there's a standout bet among the Fulham team in the fouls market for Monday Night Football.

Leg 1: Timothy Castagne 1+ foul

Timothy Castagne is again set to fill in for the injured Kenny Tete at right-back in this contest and he's a very tasty 10/11 to commit at least one foul.

His position puts him in the same areas likely to be filled by James Maddison and raiding full-back Destiny Udogie, both of whom are among Spurs' most-fouled players so far this season. Indeed, Maddison is the second most-fouled in the whole league in terms of fouls per game.

The in-form Heung-min Son also operates on this side of the field most often so it should be a tough night for the ex-Leicester defender.

Castagne has committed 1+ foul in three of his five starts since coming into the Fulham starting XI and, given the opponents, he looks a good bet to land this, with 2+ fouls worth considering for those seeking a big price.

Leg 2: Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg 1+ foul

We'll stick with 1+ foul though and move on to Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the same market.

He's set to replace the suspended Yves Bissouma in the Spurs midfield with boss Ange Postecoglou describing him as "a ready-made replacement" the other day.

The Dane could well be a little rusty given his lack of game-time - his only start came in the Carabao Cup, a game which was also against Fulham and saw him commit one foul.

Hojbjerg also managed one in his 44-minute cameo at Luton last time out and also delivered on this bet in both games for Denmark last week.

Throw in the fact that he's going up against Joao Palhinha, who loves a challenge and is another oft-fouled player, and Hojbjerg makes it into our three-legged Bet Builder.

Leg 3: James Maddison 1+ shot on target

It is completed by that man Maddison in the shots-on-target market.

The England international has had a shot on target in six of his eight starts so far, while Spurs head the league for both shots and shots on target.

Bidding to go top of the table and playing at home, expect Spurs to be the team enjoying more possession and territory, something which can get Maddison into the positions he needs to land this.

The three legs together produce a bet just under 3/1 which looks perfectly fair.

Back Castagne & Hojbjerg 1+ foul each and Maddison 1+ shot on target @ around 14/53.80
