Spurs have made perfect start to Europa League campaign
Spurs will be looking to make it three wins from three in Europe this season
Spurs got up and running after the international break in style
The Premier League returns from another international break with a potential blockbuster London derby this lunchtime. Spurs host fierce rivals West Ham looking to bounce back from their horror capitulation at Brighton a fortnight ago, when they led 2-0 at half-time before collapsing quickly to lose. Such a result ended an impressive run of five consecutive wins across all competitions for Tottenham, with Ange Postecoglou describing it as the worst defeat of his tenure so far.
Spurs will hope to restore confidence today against a West Ham side that made a very sluggish start to a new era under Julen Lopetegui, before some of the early pressure on David Moyes’ successor was eased before the break with a thumping 4-1 home win over struggling Ipswich in which captain Jarrod Bowen was back to his best.
Lopetegui could take a big step towards building a positive rapport with sceptical Hammers fans with a win over Spurs, who are set to welcome back captain Heung-min Son and Richarlison from injury. However, the visitors remain without Niclas Fullkrug as they chase successive away league wins in N17 for the first time since 1966. Follow Tottenham vs West Ham live below.
