Tottenham team news

Tottenham are expected to be without their rejuvenated wing-back Ryan Sessegnon until at least the other of side of the international break.

When Oliver Skipp will return is steeped in far more uncertainty - even for Antonio Conte who has suggested that the club's medical staff should answer questions surrounding squad fitness given their expertise.

Japhet Tanganga's prolonged and continued absence is another case that appears to baffle Conte.


West Ham team news

West Ham managed to earn a spot in the Europa League final eight without their top scorer Jarrod Bowen. The English forward has missed out on a much-touted international call-up and is likely to remain out for the weekend game with a persistent recent heel injury.

Right-back Vladimir Coufal is continuing his recovery from surgery.


Tottenham vs West Ham head-to-head record

Since their first meeting in the Thames and Medway League in 1898, Tottenham and West Ham have duked it out in a raft of different competitions. If each tournament can be considered valid, Spurs could rack up their 100th win against their bitter capital rivals this weekend.

In Premier League terms, Tottenham have avoided defeat in 17 of their last 19 home games against West Ham - although the most recent top flight visit may have felt like a defeat as Spurs conspired to only take one point when leading 3-0 in the final ten minutes.

West Ham beat Nuno Espirito Santo's side 1-0 in October at the London Stadium but haven't completed a league double over their familiar foes since 2014.


Tottenham vs West Ham score prediction

West Ham have collected ten of a possible 21 points from their Premier League outings immediately following a Europa League game this season - including a 1-0 win at home to Tottenham.

However, none of those past examples have followed 120 minutes of physically and mentally draining ecstasy like Thursday night's conquering of Sevilla.

Yet, Tottenham have had their own struggles when required to reconvene after a quick turnaround. In what may be a tense affair between two rivals in a historic and current - given the Champions League chase - context, both could earn a share of the spoils.

Prediction: Tottenham 1-1 West Ham
