Tottenham have won their last two Premier League home games against West Ham, last winning more consecutively against them between 2006 and 2009 (4).

Since becoming the first visiting team to win a Premier League game at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in April 2019, West Ham have lost three of their four league visits to Spurs (D1).

Tottenham lost 4-1 against Chelsea in their last Premier League home London derby – they’ve not lost consecutive home league games against fellow London sides since November 2004 (2-3 v Charlton, 4-5 v Arsenal).

West Ham have lost nine of their last 10 away London derbies in the Premier League, with the exception being a 1-0 win at Fulham in April.

Tottenham have won just three of their last nine midweek (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) Premier League home games (D2 L4), having won 14 of 15 such games prior to this run (D1).

West Ham didn’t win any of their six midweek (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) Premier League games last season (D2 L4), losing the last three in a row.

Tottenham have lost their last two Premier League home games, as many as in their previous 13, with each of their last four league defeats at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium coming after they’d opened the scoring. They’ve not lost three in a row at home in the league since September 2008.

West Ham haven’t kept a clean sheet in any of their last 11 Premier League away games, though they’ve also scored at least once in each of their last eight on the road in the league.

Spurs’ Son Heung-min has been involved in eight goals in eight Premier League home games against West Ham (5 goals, 3 assists), scoring at least once in each of his last three against them at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Jarrod Bowen has scored six goals in six Premier League away games this season, having netted just four in his first 69 on the road beforehand. The only West Ham players to score more away from home in a single Premier League campaign are Trevor Morley (7 in 1993-94) and Paulo Wanchope (7 in 1999-00).
