Preview
West Ham come into this after a mid-week 3-0 win over Genk in the Europa League at home which made it a hat-trick of UEL wins this season.
In the EPL, they picked up a massive 1-0 away win against Moyes’ ex-employers, Everton where Ogbonna scored the only goal of the contest.
The Hammers have played well this season and are in 7th place with 14 points to their name.
On the other hand, Tottenham beat Newcastle 2-3 away in their previous EPL meeting.
Ndombélé, Kane and Son were the scorers in that one as Spurs jumped to 5th in the table with 15 points from 8 matches.
This was followed by a 1-0 away loss to Vitesse in the Europa Conference League. Hence, Spurs eye a winning return when they visit the London Stadium.
Both sides met last season in February where West Ham took the honours 2-1 at home.
