West Ham will host Tottenham Hotspur in an exciting Premier League 5th round action on Wednesday evening. The hosts hope to remain on the winning track, while the away side wants to pick up where it left off.
West Ham Preview & Team News
West Ham United rose off the foot of the league standings with their first win of the season and will be looking to build on that when hosting Tottenham Hotspur on Match Day 5 of the Premier League. The hammers go into this game placed 16th with three points, and Tottenham is third with 10 points. After three straight defeats, the hosts finally celebrated a win, as they were better than Aston Villa away from home. Now they hope to repeat a similar success in front of their fans, but against a much stronger opponent. Pablo Fornals’ goal was the key stat as West Ham beat Aston Villa 1-0 for their first points of the season. If the Hammers want to participate on the continental stage next season, they need to be more consistent and collect points.
Tottenham Hotspur Preview & Team News
Tottenham Hotspur continued with their impressive start to the season with a 2-0 away win at Nottingham Forest. Harry Kane scored both goals to take his tally for the season to three. Spurs have won their last two encounters with West Ham but haven’t kept a clean sheet in the last five. This will be a key target for them, but they will know they also have the chance to go top with a win here. A potential victory would see them remaining in the top four and continuing their great start to the campaign. Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte has some current player fitness concerns. Oliver Skipp (Foot Injury) and Cristian Romero (Adductor problems) can’t be considered.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
Although it is not easy to play away against West Ham, the Spurs are full of confidence, and they want to continue their streak. We believe they will be successful and expect them to pick up all three points in the London Derby.
Goals Market Prediction
Although West Ham has struggled with efficiency, we expect a high-scoring game on Wednesday evening. Five of their last seven h2h clashes went over a 2.5 margin, and this one shouldn’t be much different.
