THE LOWDOWN
WEST HAM
- West Ham got a monkey off their back over the weekend by picking up their first points of the season in their victory at Aston Villa, and that will have done their confidence no harm at all ahead of this London derby.
- It seems unlikely that new signing Lucas Paqueta will be available for this fixture, while David Moyes will need to check on the fitness of a number of players for their availability.
TOTTENHAM
- A Harry Kane double gave Tottenham a 0-2 victory at Nottingham Forest on Sunday to continue Antonio Conte’s side’s unbeaten start to the season.
- Richarlison – who set up Kane’s second against Forest – has impressed from the bench in recent games and Conte has stated that he will start in the “coming games”, which could come at the expense of the under-performing Heung-Min Son here.
THE TEAM NEWS
WEST HAM
PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Fabianski; Coufal, Kehrer, Zouma, Emerson; Soucek, Rice; Bowen, Fornals, Benrahma; Antonio
UNAVAILABLE: Aguerd (Injured)
QUESTIONABLE: Dawson (Injured), Cresswell (Injured), Johnson (Injured), Paqueta (Ineligible)
TOTTENHAM
PREDICTED XI (3-4-3): Lloris; Sanchez, Dier, Davies; Emerson, Hojbjerg, Bissouma, Sessegnon; Kulusevski, Kane, Richarlison
UNAVAILABLE:
QUESTIONABLE: Romero (Injured), Skipp (Injured), Gil (Injured), Lucas Moura (Injured)
THE PREDICTION
Spurs are ticking along nicely right now as one of five sides who remain unbeaten in the Premier League this season, but West Ham are a team they have had some difficulty with in recent seasons as they have won just one of the last four league meetings between the two sides. West Ham will have their tails up after finally getting off the mark over the weekend, and they can be fancied to bring plenty of energy to this derby. The visitors are one of the most dangerous sides in the league on the break though, so do not be surprised to see this match contain over 2.5 goals.
TIP: OVER 2.5 GOALS
