West Ham and Tottenham clash in a London derby this Sunday with both sides desperate to salvage pride despite having little to play for in the Premier League standings.
The Hammers enter on a seven-game winless streak but will fancy their chances at home against Spurs, who might prioritize their Europa League campaign after Thursday's convincing win over Bodo/Glimt.

West Ham vs. Tottenham preview
West Ham and Tottenham clash in an eagerly-anticipated London derby this Sunday with both teams desperate to salvage some pride from their underwhelming Premier League campaigns.
The Hammers enter on a dismal seven-game winless run, most recently squandering a 2-1 lead in the dying minutes against Brighton, while Spurs arrive fresh off a convincing 3-1 Europa League victory over Bodo/Glimt.
Graham Potter's West Ham side, hampered by injuries to Antonio and Cresswell, have developed an alarming habit of leaking goals but maintain a decent scoring record – finding the net in five of their last six outings.
Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou faces selection headaches with Son Heung-min, James Maddison and Radu Dragusin all sidelined, though Richarlison looks sharp since returning from injury with two goals in his last five appearances.
Recent history favors the visitors who demolished West Ham 4-1 in their October meeting, but Spurs haven't won at the London Stadium since 2019 – setting the stage for a potentially explosive derby with both defenses looking particularly vulnerable.
