West Ham United vs. Tottenham: Premier League – Match Preview

West Ham United host Tottenham on Wednesday evening with the pair looking to build on their weekend victories.

West Ham earned their first win of the season as they edged past Aston Villa at Villa Park thanks to a deflected Pablo Fornals strike.

Having lost their opening three games it was a much needed win for David Moyes’ side who have struggled domestically in 2022.

Tottenham sit third in the Premier League after a 2-0 win away at Nottingham Forest on Sunday.

Harry Kane scored both goals and saw a penalty saved by Dean Henderson with Spurs making their best start to a season since 2010.

Team news
Ben Johnson came off injured in the first half at Villa Park on Sunday and will be a major doubt given the short turn around.

Antonio may well have to make do with a spot on the bench again, with Italian forward Gianluca Scamacca set to continue after a first Premier League start.

Rodrigo Bentancur came off injured late on at Forest, meaning Yves Bissouma could get a first start for Tottenham.

Cristian Romero could return from injury, whilst Ryan Sessegnon could be rotated in for Ivan Perisic.
