It is a crucial match for both Spurs and Hammers, as the hosts try to reach the top four and Moyes' team tries to find a way out of the relegation zone.

The time has come for Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham to play their second game of the season, and they will do so with plenty at stake for both sides. The home team could finish the weekend among those who will qualify for the UEFA Champions League, and if West Ham can claim a win here, it would do wonders for their struggling season and to their hopes of keeping their spot in the English top-flight.

Tottenham make it to this match in fifth place, but that could have easily changed if they had been able to win more games in recent weeks. Conte's men lost three out of their last five matches, giving way for Newcastle to hang on to the fourth place. Now, with the Magpies' loss to Liverpool, Spurs have a wonderful chance to leapfrog Howe's team.

When it comes to team form, Tottenham will want to find some consistency ahead of their upcoming fixtures, having lost their previous clash to Leicester with an emphatic 4-1 score. The Lilywhites' last wins have come with narrow one-nil scores, and it would be about time to see their goalscoring form improve to help them win crucial ties such as Sunday's.

As for West Ham, David Moyes' team will walk into Tottenham's stadium with three straight Premier League games without a loss, although only one of those ended in a win. The Hammers are ranked 18th in the league, which demands more concentration for this match than ever. A win here could see them leave the relegation zone, involving clubs such as Bournemouth and Everton in that struggle.

The Hammers' recent matches have seen them claim points against Newcastle and Chelsea, with the first of those games taking place away from home. Now, it is time for Moyes' men to try and replicate that feat, especially after Bournemouth's win and with Newcastle dropping points one more time this weekend.

Here are some interesting facts to keep an eye on before this match kicks off.
