Fulham boss Scott Parker 'understands Jose Mourinho's frustration' over postponed game with Tottenham and admits he is uncertain whether Sunday's relegation grudge match against Burnley will go ahead

Scott Parker has admitted Fulham's match at Burnley tomorrow is in doubt as he defended his club's actions over the postponed trip to Tottenham.

Fulham were last night awaiting the results of their latest round of Covid-19 tests before discovering if they will have enough players to face Burnley in the Premier League.

Their London derby against Spurs was called off after a surge in coronavirus cases, which had risen to six players and four members of staff by Wednesday, the scheduled day of the game.
