Tottenham Form & Record Check
Tottenham Hotspur go into the clash against West Ham United with a bitter defeat behind them. In the last game against Brighton, the Spurs were already leading 2-0 at half-time: Brennan Johnson put Tottenham in front and James Maddison made it 2-0 in the 37th minute. But in the second half, the game tilted in favor of the guests. Brighton was much more dangerous and turned the game around within just 18 minutes to 3-2, which marked the final score.
Despite the defeat, it was a balanced game in which Brighton, however, were more consistent in front of goal. Tottenham will have to quickly overcome this disappointment to get back on track against West Ham and maintain stability over the full 90 minutes.
The Hammers, who have not won in their last game, face an uphill task. Nevertheless, Tottenham are favored to win, mainly because of their home strength and quality of play. It will be important to maintain the momentum of the first half against Brighton over the entire game against West Ham and to improve their defensive performance to avoid another upset.

West Ham Form & Record Check
West Ham United have had a mixed season so far. In their last five games, the Hammers have only managed one win, but this came in impressive fashion in their last game: West Ham celebrated a clear 4-1 victory over Ipswich Town. The team dominated the game with 53% possession and put the opposition under permanent pressure with 23 shots on goal, 13 of which were dangerous. Both defense and offense played well, which made the victory well-deserved.
Despite this success, Tottenham remain favorites in the upcoming clash. The home advantage and Spurs’ strong recent home record should be crucial in securing the three points.
Away weakness
West Ham’s away form could prove to be their undoing in the clash with Tottenham. In their last five away games, the Hammers have only managed to secure one victory. Now, they face an especially difficult task against the in-form Spurs.
Tottenham have been strong at home and will be looking to bounce back from their recent defeat. Given West Ham’s poor away record and Tottenham’s home advantage, the odds are in favor of the Spurs winning this clash.
West Ham Facts & Analysis
- 12th in the Premier League
- Won the last league game
- West Ham scored four goals in the last game
Tottenham will line up in a classic 4-3-3 formation, relying on fast wing play and a high offensive presence. However, they will be without key players like Heung-min Son, Richarlison and Wilson Odobert, which limits their attacking flexibility.
West Ham will line up in a compact 4-1-4-1 formation, relying on stability in the midfield and targeted counterattacks. Only new signing Niklas Füllkrug is out due to an Achilles tendon, but that only partially limits the Hammers’ options in attack.
