Tottenham vs West Ham - Premier League: TV channel, team news, lineups and prediction
Tottenham Hotspur host Thursday night's bitter London derby as West Ham United travel to the north of the capital.
Injuries and suspensions have crippled Ange Postecoglou's side after their flying start to the campaign, but they'll head into this midweek clash buoyed by their performance at Manchester City which snapped a three-Game losing run.
West Ham were particularly thorny opposition for Mauricio Pochettino's Spurs, although the Lilywhites have had plenty of success against the Hammers in recent times. Nevertheless, the visitors enjoyed a productive November and are currently on a five-game unbeaten run in all competitions.

Tottenham team news
Cristian Romero will return to the starting XI after serving a three-game suspension. The Argentine will likely partner Ben Davies at centre-back.
Pape Matar Sarr could also be brought back into the fold after missing the last two games, but the midfielder is more likely to earn minutes off the bench if he does make the matchday squad.
Sarr's the only current absentee who has a chance of returning in midweek. The hosts are still without James Maddison, Micky van de Ven, Rodrigo Bentancur, Ivan Perisic, Manor Solomon, Ryan Sessegnon and Ashley Phillips.

Tottenham vs West Ham score prediction
Moyes, the antithesis to Ange's idealism, so often comes up trumps in games like this. West Ham can frustrate the hosts and counter to great effect as they did at Brighton earlier this season, but there's something about this Spurs side which suggests they won't let that happen.
Unfortunate to lose at home to Aston Villa, Spurs, despite all their absences, were eventually well worth a point at the Etihad on Sunday, while the Hammers were drab at home to Palace.
The hosts will be full of confidence off the back of the weekend's result, and the home supporters will be desperate to enjoy their first win in N17 since 23 October.
Prediction: Tottenham 3-1 West Ham
