Stadium: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Tottenham fans will sense they are at the start of a crucial spell in their campaign as they prepare to welcome West Ham.

Spurs go into the derby, the first of two in as many weeks with Chelsea up next, looking to avoid a third straight loss for the first time this season and will be without manager Antonio Conte, who has again stepped back from first-team duties following a routine post-operation check in Italy.

Conte’s opposite number David Moyes has plenty to be positive about as his side have lost just once in their last seven games in all competitions.

This Sunday could be the Hammers’ toughest test since their last trip to north London when they lost to Arsenal on Boxing Day but we think they will do better this time and a draw at 27/10 is our first Tottenham vs West Ham prediction.

Tottenham Odds

Conte spoke this week about dealing with pressure, saying: “Sometimes players feel motivated, other times they feel so much under pressure that they can’t perform.

“Maybe for a period they have a good performance and then they collapse all of a sudden if they feel too much pressure.

“We are working on this, we want to make our players more resilient.”

This was after they were hammered 4-1 at Leicester and before they lost 1-0 at AC Milan. Spurs also have a few injury concerns to deal with and are without goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.

But despite the doom and gloom, Spurs are still just two points off fourth place – although they have played a game more than Newcastle – and before the Foxes game they had won three in a row, including a defeat of defending champions Manchester City.

The home support should at least have something to shout about on derby day and a draw with both teams scoring is 18/5.

Last Tottenham line-up: Forster, Romero, Dier, Lenglet, Emerson Royal, Skipp, Sarr, Perisic, Kulusevski, Son, Kane.

West Ham Odds

Moyes heads into a derby for the second game in a row having watched his side draw with Chelsea last weekend.

Ahead of that one, he said: “I believe we can have a good season. We have still got a lot to play for.

“I think we’re showing a little bit better signs in some areas but we’re going to be challenged by good teams like Chelsea, we’re going to be challenged in the European competition, which we’re going into again in March, and we’re in the next round of the FA Cup.”

As far as the league goes, Moyes’ men remain just two places and two points above the relegation zone and while they have home games against Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa and Southampton to look forward to in the next few weeks, trips to Brighton and Manchester City are also on the horizon.

With Spurs not quite firing on all cylinders in their last two outings and missing some key men, Moyes will look to take advantage and collect something to build on as he targets a push up the table.

Our final Tottenham vs West Ham prediction is Jarrod Bowen to score his side’s first goal at 4/1.

Last West Ham line-up: Fabianski, Kehrer, Ogbonna, Aguerd, Coufal, Lucas Paqueta, Rice, Emerson, Bowen, Benrahma, Antonio.
