West Ham continue their battle to avoid relegation at Tottenham in the first of two London derbies for them this week.
The Hammers suffered a 2-0 home defeat by Wolves on Saturday while Spurs drew 1-1 with Jose Mourinho’s former club Manchester United in their first game back.
Punters can get for a home win and over 2.5 goals and that is our opening Tottenham vs West Ham prediction.
A Look At Tottenham Hotspur’s Betting Odds
Tottenham are now nine points behind fourth-placed Chelsea after a fourth game without a win.
Steven Bergwijn’s first-half opener had put Spurs on course for a welcome win before Bruno Fernandes converted a penalty with nine minutes remaining.
Despite having Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Bergwijn back in his attacking ranks, Mourinho was without the suspended Dele Alli and the injured Lucas Moura.
He said: “Against West Ham in the next match if everything goes well, I expect to have two attacking players on the bench that can give me the opportunity to change the intensity when the intensity goes down.”
There have been 22 goals scored in Tottenham’s last seven league encounters, with six of them seeing both teams score.
Kane returned from a hamstring injury against Manchester United but naturally looked a little rusty.
He scored in the reverse fixture in November and is to net at any time in the .
Last Tottenham line-up: Lloris, Aurier, Sanchez, Dier, Davies, Bergwijn, Sissoko, Winks, Lamela, Son, Kane.
A Look At West Ham United’s Betting Odds
West Ham remain out of the bottom three on goal difference after a fourth defeat in five games.
Adama Traore’s second-half introduction swung a tight match in Wolves’ favour, the winger having a hand in late goals for Raul Jimenez and Pedro Neto.
The Hammers have won just one of their previous 10 league games, losing seven times, and have only scored 10 times during that period.
They now face a trip to Tottenham before another derby against Chelsea next weekend.
England international Declan Rice said: “In the position we’re in we can’t be dropping points. We need to lift our heads up for Tuesday.”
West Ham’s fortunes have not been helped by their first-half displays in which they have led just twice in their last 10 games while Spurs have been in front at the break four times in seven.
With that in mind, we are making for the home side to be leading at half-time and full-time our final Tottenham vs West Ham prediction.
Last West Ham line-up: Fabianski, Ngakia, Rice, Diop, Cresswell, Anderson, Soucek, Noble, Fornals, Antonio, Bowen.
