It's a great place to play football, this is a sensational stadium and what a game we should have this evening.

Richarlison is fouled straight away as Vitalii Mykolenko stamps on his foot.

Fulham

Fulham manager Marco Silva, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: “If you see the last few games, Bournemouth have played with good possession. We didn’t give them a chance to do that. We conceded two goals in the first half, the first with six against two inside our box, the second with six against four inside our box. From nothing they can create a chance.

“We need to be more compact in these moments because they don’t have to do something special to create a chance. We need to be stronger as a team. At half-time, I told the players the damage was done but we had to show character. In the second half, we did everything. We pushed them back while stopping them from creating counter-attacks. I think we did that really well.

“I have seen the penalty. If West Ham got a penalty for this [last week], why isn’t this a penalty? The feedback that I got from the person in charge was that it was a clear penalty. If that one was a penalty, then this has to be a penalty because I want to see some consistency.

“We have quality. When defensive things happen, we have to work on it as a collective. We know we have the capacity to create chances, with our philosophy. This game is a good example.

“I think I have to highlight the character and personality of our team.”

Off we go in London.

Bournemouth

Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke, speaking to Sky Sports: “Taking the lead twice and only taking a point is obviously going to be frustrating, but we’ll take the point.

“It’s amazing to score so early on. To get on the scoresheet so early sets you up for the game. I’m just taking it game by game – every game is difficult. I’m just looking to do my part.

“Credit to Gary, he’s doing a fantastic job. We love him and he’s doing a fantastic job. He believes in us and I think that shows on the pitch.”

You talk about a winning mentality, obviously that is something Tottenham haven’t had. They haven’t won a trophy since 2008 so Conte has had to come in and change everything and overhaul people’s thinking.

Even when I was there, you went out, played well, played the Tottenham way, nice football but eventually get beaten and it was like it is what it is. But now, when you’ve got a manager who’s a winner, been a player, and in his managerial career, he wants to do big things and win big trophies and compete.

So he’s right, it’s his way or you’re out. If you don’t work to his way of thinking, you will not play within that team. He’s trying to create something and it is working, you can see that on the pitch and the players are buying into it. They’re maybe missing something in midfield, a little bit of creativity but apart from that, I think they’re looking really good.

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper on the refereeing to Match of the Day: "Big issue with the first one but I'm not going to talk about it. We know the referee well from last year but that's enough said.

"It is fine margins in this league no doubt about that but I'm more focused on our possession play in the first half. Everyone knows we're trying to find a way of playing, find the best team, and like I said previously it's a difficult coaching challenge.

"I'm not going to look too much at what didn't go our way with the officials, we half expected that because of who was reffing."

Tottenham forward Richarlison scored 43 goals in 135 Premier League appearances for Everton, but is yet to get off the mark for Spurs in the competition.

If he does that today, he would be the fifth player to score his first Premier League goal for Spurs against a side he previously played for.

David Bentley (vs Arsenal), Louis Saha (vs Newcastle), William Gallas (vs Chelsea) and Fernando Llorente (vs Swansea) are the ones to do it so far.

Bournemouth

Bournemouth interim manager Gary O’Neil, speaking to Sky Sports: “The boys were very, very good again. I’ve been very pleased with what they’ve produced in all six games I’ve been in charge of.

“The boys have given me everything in these six games. We’ve got a quick turnaround now against Southampton so we’re fully focused on getting the boys ready for Wednesday.”

On Fulham's penalty: “I’ve been in those situations. When you see it quickly you think Jefferson [Lerma] is holding [Mitrovic], but it’s not a penalty. I understand if you’re watching that and you haven’t been in that situation [why you might give the penalty].”

Frank Lampard said he does not anticipate last season's heavy defeat at Tottenham, when the Toffees were thrashed 5-0 in March, will have any bearing on tonight's meeting.

"The game sticks in my mind and I know the detail behind it," Lampard said. "We suffered from 20 minutes onwards and obviously Spurs had a very strong performance.

"But it's a long time ago, and we've progressed since then. It has no real relevance to this weekend."

The Everton boss also praised Antonio Conte and his team.

"He's a great coach," said Lampard. "He has had great success in his career. I've got nothing but the highest praise for him.

"He's got fantastic players and a clear, defined way of play that's well coached and well delivered. Obviously they've got showstoppers at the front end of the pitch, but across the board they are a good unit."

Wolverhampton Wanderers

Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Ruben Neves to Premier League Productions: "We spoke about it being a difficult start all week, we knew the importance. We had a fantastic first half, Nottingham just tried to slow down the game. We had a lot of chances in the first half. Second half we played really well again, we scored.

"We conceded a penalty in the set play, we were struggling after the set play because we wanted to keep the ball. But Jose Sa is a fantastic goalkeeper, he showed it last season, he's showing it again, importantly he saved a really important penalty for us."

On how he set himself up for his penalty: "I Just thought about myself. I know if I do it well it's really hard for the goalkeeper. That's why I try to shoot with a bit more power because I know he's a really good goalkeeper with penalties."

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper to Premier League Productions: "When you lose it's always hard to take. I know we've had the penalty but we've not looked after the ball well enough. Wolves are a technical team and we were happy to be in our mid block. When we got the ball we didn't show enough bravery, we didn't show enough technique.

"Less said about the referee's performance today the better. I'm pretty sure there would've been a different decision if it was at the other end.

"We'll always look at ourselves first and first half I didn't think we did well enough with the ball.

"It's not about going back to the drawing board, it's about continuing the process of trying to become who we want to be regardless of results."

Chris Sutton
BBC football expert

Everton were a bit underwhelming against Manchester United at the weekend, especially after taking an early lead.

The Toffees defence has improved a lot since the last time they came to Spurs - they lost 5-0 in March - but United showed you can still get at them.

I think Everton boss Frank Lampard will be quite pragmatic here, but stopping Spurs won't be easy. Harry Kane is up and running and Son Heung-min is still in my fantasy team and is going to come good soon.

So, Tottenham will find a way though. How comfortable this is for them just depends on when they score their first goal.

Sutton's prediction: 3-1

Bournemouth

Bournemouth interim manager Gary O'Neil, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "It’s a good point [but] it’s a terrible penalty decision. I’ve been told that Jefferson [Lerma] is holding Mitrovic, but why Mitrovic falls backwards I have no idea. He pulls Jefferson over, otherwise you wouldn’t fall that way. I think it’s a terrible decision.

"The result is the result. I think the boys played extremely well. I’m just disappointed that [the penalty decision] cost them what they deserved.

"There’s no disappointment with what our team produced today – zero – but when the game swings to 2-2 we need to go about it a different way. When the lads did that they stuck to it, but my overriding feeling is disappointment. If you’ve played the game, you know that’s not a penalty.

"I need to see the game back because they had some moments, as we did. My first thought was that I was pleased with what [the players] offered. At the moment it seems like these decisions are going against us. I think we’ve had six or seven VAR reviews since I took over and we’ve got zero. Hopefully we’ll start to get those.

"I’m delighted with what the lads have produced in all six games I've been in charge of."

Wolves have hit back in style.
