Tottenham Hotspur return to Premier League action this weekend with a London derby on the horizon. Here’s how to watch the clash between Tottenham and West Ham United.
Tottenham Hotspur have had a significant rest since their last outing, which came last weekend in the FA Cup against Aston Villa.
It proved to be a brief spell in the competition, as Unai Emery’s side sent Tottenham packing with a 2-1 win in front of their home supporters.
Thomas Frank remains a man under pressure, but next up is a London derby against a struggling West Ham United side, who currently sit 18th in the table.

Spurs and West Ham United team news
Thomas Frank has several injury issues to manage, with Mohammed Kudus ruled out until after the next international break.
At the same time, Rodrigo Bentancur is expected to be sidelined for an extended period following his knock against Bournemouth, while Richarlison picked up what appeared to be a hamstring problem in the FA Cup tie against Aston Villa.
Lucas Bergvall is also a doubt, while James Maddison remains sidelined as he continues his recovery from an ACL injury. Conor Gallagher could be in line to make his debut.
As for Dejan Kulusevski, he is expected back in four to six weeks, while Pape Matar Sarr is away on AFCON duty.
West Ham United also have concerns of their own, with Konstantinos Mavropanos dealing with a head injury and Lukasz Fabianski a doubt due to a back problem.
What Spurs need against West Ham United
Spurs need to secure a victory to end a run of one win in their last five matches across all competitions.
While it is a London derby, Tottenham are facing one of the weakest West Ham United sides in recent years, with the Hammers in the relegation zone and having taken just one point from their last five games.
Thomas Frank’s side got the better of West Ham earlier in the season, and a repeat is desperately needed as Spurs look to climb from 14th place and close the gap on the top five.
Score prediction: Tottenham 3-2 West Ham
