Tottenham and West Ham are set to kick off the Premier League’s return with a thrilling London derby clash. The two teams are gearing up to face each other at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Spurs, managed by Ange Postecoglou, had been enjoying a successful run of form until they were shocked by Brighton in their previous match before the international break. The team squandered a two-goal lead at half-time, resulting in a disappointing end to their five-game winning streak.
On the other hand, West Ham, led by Julen Lopetegui, managed to break a five-game winless streak with a convincing 4-1 victory over Ipswich. The win came as a relief for the Hammers, who will be looking to climb over their London rivals in the standings with a win against Tottenham.
Last season, West Ham emerged victorious in their away fixture against Spurs, and they will be hoping to replicate that success in this crucial derby match.
The hosts could see the return of their captain Heung-min Son from injury, providing a potential boost for Tottenham in their quest for three points. Meanwhile, West Ham will be riding high on confidence after their recent win and will be looking to continue their positive momentum.
The match is scheduled to kick off at 12.30pm BST and promises to be an exciting and intense showdown between these two London clubs. Stay tuned for live updates and all the latest team news as the action unfolds at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
