The last time the teams met was back in August at the London Stadium in London, at the start of the Premier League season. Spurs took the lead thanks to an own goal from Kehrer in the first half, but the Hammers secured a share of the points thanks to Souček's 55th minute equaliser.

West Ham have slipped into the drop zone, with just 20 points from their 22 matches. The good news for Hammers fans is that they have a mach in hand over the teams above them. A win over Spurs today (tough ask as it is) would rocket them up to 15th or 16th spot.
