West Ham v Tottenham: match preview

This should be a feisty London derby. Tottenham are only a point above West Ham and lost this fixture last season. West Ham will fancy themselves, although they must guard against tiredness after beating Genk in the Europa League on Thursday. Spurs rested their entire first-choice XI against Vitesse Arnhem on the same evening and they will hope Harry Kane’s season is about to take off after the striker ended his league goal drought against Newcastle last Sunday.
