Both Tottenham and West Ham are in need of points in today’s London derby in the Premier League.
Meetings between the two hardly need added spice but Spurs and the Hammers enter the clash in differing form.
Spurs’ last Premier League outing saw them beaten 4-1 at Leicester before following that up with a loss away at AC Milan in the Champions League. Consistency remains a key issue and Antonio Conte will not be in the dugout for the foreseeable future, complicating their attempts to finish in the top four.
