Tottenham have another London derby to go through in their quest for the Premier League title as they face West Ham United at the Olympic Stadium on Friday. The Spurs won the reverse fixture 3-2 in November, with Harry Kane scoring on 89 and 91 minutes to rescue the three points at White Hart Lane. West Ham have beaten Tottenham 1-0 at home last season.
West Ham are probably waiting for this disappointing season to end as soon as possible, they are seven points above the relegation zone with three games left so they are almost safe. They are unbeaten in the last four matches, but have drawn the last three and haven't scored any goals in the last two. Angelo Ogbonna, Pedro Obiang and Michail Antonio remain injured, while Arthur Masuaku, Diafra Sakho and Andy Carroll are also likely to miss out.
Tottenham will be looking to put some pressure on leaders Chelsea with a win at West Ham, the Spurs are just four points behind the Blues and Antonio Conte's men play against Middlesbrough on Monday. Tottenham have won their last nine league matches, including last weekend's 2-0 victory over Arsenal in the North London derby. Danny Rose could make his return to fitness but he will probably be given a spot on the bench for now.
Probable line-ups:
West Ham: Adrian - Fonte, Reid, Collins - Fernandes, Kouyate, Nordtveit, Cresswell - Lanzini - Ayew, Calleri
Tottenham: Lloris - Trippier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies - Dier, Wanyama - Son Heung-Min, Eriksen, Alli - Kane
My prediction: Tottenham to win 2-1.
Here are the odds for the match at Bet365:
