Our predictions for West Ham United vs Tottenham Hotspur
Match Prediction: West Ham United 1-2 Tottenham Hotspur
West Ham's recent form has been a bit of a rollercoaster. They smashed Nottingham Forest away from home, but were hammered prior to that by Sunderland and Chelsea. They'll be looking to bounce back with a strong performance at home. Tottenham, on the other hand, have been more consistent lately, with wins against Manchester City and Burnley, but did suffer a surprising loss to Bournemouth at home. This match could be tight, with both teams eager to prove themselves.
Tottenham's attack has been firing on all cylinders, but their defence showed cracks against Bournemouth. West Ham will need to exploit this, especially after their heavy defeats. If West Ham can keep their heads and play to their strengths, they might just nick a result. But Tottenham's recent form suggests they'll be tough to beat.
Form Guide & Team Overview
West Ham United
West Ham's recent results have been a mixed bag. A convincing win against Nottingham Forest showed they can perform well away from home, but heavy losses to Chelsea at home and Sunderland away are a concern. They'll need to find their best form if they want to compete against a strong Tottenham side. The home crowd could be a big factor in lifting their spirits.
