Overview
In an upcoming Premier League clash, West Ham will host Tottenham Hotspur at the London Stadium. With both teams having a contrasting season so far, this match promises to be a thrilling encounter. West Ham, currently sitting at 7th in the league table with 44 points from 30 games, will look to improve their position and close in on the European spots. Tottenham, on the other hand, occupies the 5th spot with 56 points from 29 matches and will aim to solidify their standing for Champions League qualification. The match is scheduled for Tuesday, with J. Brooks officiating as the referee.
West Ham
West Ham's recent form has been a mixed bag with two wins, two draws, and one loss in their last five league games. Their previous fixture ended in a high-scoring affair against Newcastle at St. James' Park, where they narrowly lost 4-3 despite leading at halftime. This season they have accumulated 12 wins, 8 draws, and 10 losses, with a negative goal difference of -5. Historically against Tottenham, they have an even record with two wins, one draw, and two losses in their last five encounters. Playing at home at the London Stadium could give them the edge they need to turn their recent form around.
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham Hotspur comes into this match after a victory over Luton with a scoreline of 2-1 in their last fixture at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Their form has been relatively better than West Ham's with three wins and two losses in their last five league matches. With a positive goal difference of +18 and more wins in the season (17 out of 29 games), Tottenham seems to be in a stronger position compared to their hosts. Their record against West Ham mirrors that of their opponents with two wins, one draw, and two losses. However, they will be playing away from home which could prove challenging.

Prediction
The prediction for this match favors Tottenham as the winner. This is based on their superior league position, better goal difference, and overall form this season compared to West Ham. Despite playing away from home, Tottenham's recent performance suggests they have what it takes to secure a win at the London Stadium. However, football is unpredictable and West Ham's desire to bounce back from their last defeat could see them put up a strong fight in front of their home fans. With both teams having an equal historical head-to-head record in recent times, spectators can expect a competitive match.
