Meetings between the two need hardly be spicy, but Spurs and Hammers come into the clash in a different form.
Spurs’ last Premier League outing saw them beaten 4-1 at Leicester before following up with an away loss to AC Milan in the Champions League. Consistency remains a key issue and Antonio Conte will not be in the dugout for the foreseeable future, which will complicate their attempts to finish in the top four.
While it’s hard to define the season as anything other than positive for West Ham, things have been looking up lately.
Unbeaten in their last three Premier League games, the confidence seems to be returning.

Tottenham vs West Ham Prediction
Spurs are hardly in brilliant form and are so short of key players that it would seem foolish to back them on a West Ham side that seem to be doing just fine.
A 1-1 draw.
