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.

West Ham vs. Tottenham betting tips

Both Teams To Score (11/25)

Tottenham @ West Ham

West Ham's defensive frailties have been evident with goals at both ends in their last four consecutive matches.

The Hammers have managed just one clean sheet in their previous 11 home fixtures, making them vulnerable to Spurs' attack.

Tottenham have been equally poor defensively, conceding in nine straight Premier League outings despite their attacking prowess.

Six of Spurs' last seven games have seen both teams find the net, establishing a clear pattern for Sunday's London derby.

With both backlines struggling for stability and the attacking talent on display, this London derby has all the ingredients for goals at both ends.

Tottenham to Win 2-1 (10/1)

Tottenham @ West Ham

Spurs claimed a comfortable 4-1 victory in the reverse fixture, showing they have the attacking edge over their London rivals.

West Ham find themselves in a troubling run of form, going winless in their last seven matches with three draws and four defeats.

While European competition remains Tottenham's priority, their superior quality should still shine through in this London derby.

The Hammers' defensive issues combined with Spurs' own vulnerability at the back points toward a game where both teams score.

With Richarlison potentially returning to the starting lineup and West Ham's poor form, Tottenham should have enough firepower to secure a narrow away victory.

Richarlison To Score Anytime (47/25)

Tottenham @ West Ham

The Brazilian forward has been impressively efficient since returning from injury, contributing two goals and an assist in just 177 minutes of action.

Richarlison's potential inclusion in the starting lineup against West Ham presents a golden opportunity for him to continue his strong form.

His predatory instincts in the box make him a constant threat against a West Ham defense that's kept just one clean sheet in their last 11 home matches.

Spurs' attacking setup should create ample opportunities for Richarlison to find himself in scoring positions throughout the match.

With his confidence returning after injury troubles, the Brazilian looks well-positioned to make an impact in this London derby.
