Our Prediction Tip

Tottenham Hotspur will win this match.

West Ham earned a rare away win against Spurs last season, but Tottenham have won the other three of their last four meetings in total. This season’s previous meeting proved a dramatic one – Son Heung-Min, Lucas Moura and Harry Kane fired Spurs into a 3-0 lead but late goals from Michail Antonio and Angelo Ogbonna meant a late scare in a match that finished 3-2 in the end – West Ham also having a goal chalked off by VAR. Here are the results of their last five competitive matches:

Nov 23, 2019: West Ham United 2-3 Tottenham Hotspur
Apr 27, 2019: Tottenham Hotspur 0-1 West Ham United
Oct 31, 2018: West Ham United 1-3 Tottenham Hotspur
Oct 20, 2018: West Ham United 0-1 Tottenham Hotspur
Jan 04, 2018: Tottenham Hotspur 1-1 West Ham United

Tottenham Hotspur vs West Ham Betting Tips

Neither side come into this match in good form – Spurs are without a win in seven games in all competitions and West Ham have won one in 11.

And yet Tottenham are in a far better place – still challenging for European qualification and back to full strength on the pitch too.

Harry Kane’s return is a big boost, while Son Heung-Min is also back and Dele Alli returns from suspension too.

For West Ham, by contrast, they are suffering yet more injury problems with a disappointing season having been beset by injuries.

The Hammers are now outside the drop zone on goal difference only and their form does not show any sign of a consistent end to their predicament.
Certainly against rivals Spurs, they start as big outsiders. Spurs’ lose home advantage due to no fans being in for this lockdown match but the Hammers have not showed enough to suggest that will matter.

Kane, Son, Alli and Steven Bergwijn are all dangerous attacking players and Spurs can claim victory in this match.

Tottenham Team News

Lucas Moura could miss out, but Spurs have Dele Alli back from suspension to add to a strong line-up that already saw Son Heung-Min and Harry Kane return from injury over the extended break.

Tottenham Key Players

Harry Kane – The England captain will be keen to get back in the goals as soon as possible as he makes his return to Premier League action.
Son Heung-Min – The break should have done the popular South Korean international good after a frustrating season.
Steven Bergwijn – Has now netted against both Manchester clubs after his strike against United last time out, following a powerful run.

Tottenham Team Form

Spurs are without a win in seven matches but they did earn a draw with Manchester United last time out – Steven Bergwijn scoring their goal. They drew their previous Premier League too, against Burnley, with Dele Alli scoring on that occasion.

Tottenham Hotspur Predicted Starting Line-up

Expected Line up: 3-4-3

West Ham Team News

Robert Snodgrass leads the West Ham injury list after back and ankle injuries last time out, while Angelo Ogbonna remains sidelined and Sebastien Haller, Pablo Zabaleta and Arthur Masuaku are also unavailable.

West Ham Key Players

Jarrod Bowen – Much was expected of the new signing before the season paused and the brief glimpses he showed before then need to come to fruition.
Michail Antonio – Led the attack last time out and the powerful forward needs to find some goals to help lift West Ham away from trouble.
Lukasz Fabianski – Some of West Ham’s worst form came when the Polish goalkeeper was out injured. He is absolutely key between the sticks.

West Ham Team Form

A late but ultimately comfortable 2-0 defeat to Wolves last time out means struggling West Ham have won just one of their last 11 matches in all competitions. Since that win, against Southampton, they have lost 1-0 to Arsenal and now 2-0 to Wolves, either side of lockdown.

West Ham United Predicted Starting Line-up
