Tottenham vs West Ham: Premier League Prediction Match Details
October international break is finally over as Tottenham will welcome West Ham United in an early London derby kickoff on matchday eight at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Can Spurs bounce back from their painful away defeat the last time out?
Tottenham Preview & Form
Tottenham suffered a painful loss in their last Premier League match before the international break. Despite holding a 2-0 lead in the first half of the match, Brighton & Hove Albion mounted a remarkable comeback and secured a 3-2 victory. However, prior to the defeat, Ange Postecoglou’s side was on a five-match winning streak in all competitions after a poor start to their campaign. Spurs will aim to recover, as the Brighton defeat was a setback for Spurs. Currently, they sit ninth in the league standings with 10 points. They have scored a total of 14 goals and conceded eight during the process.
Since the start of the new campaign in the Premier League, Spurs’ home form has been good. They have only suffered one defeat in the North London Derby against Arsenal but have secured victories in the other two matches against Brentford and Everton.
West Ham Preview & Form
West Ham tasted their first Premier League home win of the new campaign before the international break, ending their four consecutive game winless run. The Hammers will be hoping to build on their convincing home 4-1 win over newly promoted Ipswich in their last match courtesy of goals from Michail Antonio, Mohammed Kudus, Jarrad Bowen, and Lucas Paquetá. Currently, the victory moves the Hammers two points behind the midtable in the league standings. They have scored 10 goals in their opening seven games but unfortunately have conceded 11 goals.
Julen Lopetegui’s team has remained undefeated in their away league games, with one win and two consecutive draws. It’s worth mentioning that during this period, the Hammers’ frontline has scored a goal in each game while conceding twice.
