Tottenham missed the chance to move into fourth position in the Premier League after a 1-1 draw with West Ham at London Stadium. Spurs took the lead inside five minutes through Johnson, who scored his fifth goal of the season from close range after getting onto Werner's low cross. However, the visitors couldn’t add to their lead, with the Hammers levelling later in the first half. Zouma latched into Bowen's inswinging corner from the right and directed his effort across the goal and into the net. Both teams had a chance to win it, but missed huge opportunities. Antonio did brilliantly to get away from Van de Ven, but he struck his shot straight at Vicario. Udogie then had an opportunity for Spurs deep into stoppage time, but his low effort was stopped by Fabianski. It was a very close contest, with West Ham creating an xG of 1.16 compared to Tottenham's 0.96. Next up, the Irons travel to Wolves, with Spurs hosting Nottingham Forest. That's all for today, goodbye.

21:51
Tottenham are winless in their last three Premier League away games against West Ham (drawing one and losing two), their longest run without a win at the Hammers since a run of six between 1995 and 2001. They look like the team more likely to take the lead, but must put Fabianski under more pressure. Spurs have only had one shot on target in the second half and are not making the most of their dominance.

21:14
West Ham narrowly edged the first half, creating an xG (expected goals) of 0.61 from their five shots. Bowen and Kudus has constantly caused problems down the wings with their pace and trickery, but Paqueta has had a quiet half by his standards, completely just 80 per cent of his passes and giving away three fouls. As for Spurs, they were excellent until they conceded. Porro and Udogie have supported their attacks brilliantly, constantly causing problems with their overlapping runs. Bentancur has also been strong in the midfield and has had 66 touches, but there has been some frustration from Maddison, who has constantly dropped deep to collect possession and ended the half on the wrong side of a heavy tackle from Paqueta.

West Ham United vs Tottenham Hotspur
20:49
Werner has had five goal involvements in the Premier League this season in 10 games, as many as in his last Premier League season (2021-22) in 21 games. He has certainly made an impact for Spurs, but still lacks an instinct to score goals.
West Ham United vs Tottenham Hotspur
20:48
CHANCE! What a cross from Johnson. Porro collects possession on the touchline and pokes a pass through to Johnson, who flashes a brilliant cross into the box. Werner is at the back post, but he doesn’t make a run across. That should've been a chance for Werner to score, but he didn't anticipate it.

Tottenham have lost three of their last five Premier League London derby matches (winning two), as many as they had in their previous 19 (winning 10 and drawing six). In the competition’s history, Spurs have conceded 398 goals in such games, and could be the second side to ship 400 after West Ham. They have dominated the early exchanges, but missed a few chances to double their lead and were punished.

West Ham United vs Tottenham Hotspur
20:28

West Ham United vs Tottenham Hotspur
20:03
Spurs make three alterations to the team that came from behind to beat Luton 2-1 in their last match.

Bentancur comes into the midfield and replaces Sarr, with Johnson appearing on the wing ahead of Kulusevski.
West Ham United vs Tottenham Hotspur
19:58
West Ham make one change to the side that lost 4-3 to Newcastle in their previous Premier League outing. Alphonse Areola was forced off against the Magpies with a groin problem and is not in the squad, meaning Fabianski comes in to start in goal.

Tottenham are pushing for a place in next season's Champions League and are currently in fifth position, three points behind Aston Villa, who are in fourth and have played one extra fixture. Spurs are in good form and have collected three wins from their last four. However, they had to come from behind against relegation-threatened Luton Town in their previous outing to avoid a shock defeat that would have put a massive dent in their top-four ambitions. The score was level late on after an own goal from Issa Kabore cancelled out Tahith Chong's early opener, but Tottenham prevailed thanks to Son Heung-min, who struck his 160th Spurs goal in the 86th minute to help his side to all three points. Ange Postecoglou's men will be eager to end the campaign strongly and can focus on the league as they are out of the FA Cup and are not in Europe.
West Ham United vs Tottenham Hotspur
19:45
West Ham will be looking to bounce back from their disappointing 4-3 loss to Newcastle United in their previous Premier League outing, with the Hammers now winless in their last three top-flight outings. David Moyes' men were in a strong position after goals from Michail Antonio, Mohammed Kudus, and Jarrod Bowen helped them come from behind to lead 3-1. However, West Ham crumbled in the latter stages of the second half, with Newcastle scoring three times in 13 minutes to claim a precious victory. The Irons will welcome a return to the London Stadium after collecting 24 points from their 15 matches at home and will attempt to turn their form around to ensure they qualify for European football next season. West Ham are currently in seventh position, one point above Newcastle in eighth place and four behind Manchester United in sixth, with both teams having a game in hand.
