Tottenham vs West Ham - What you need to know

Last updated : 25 February 2013 By Hog

In the reverse fixture we walked away as 3-1 winners (which saw Defoe notch up 2 goals). 

We are unbeaten in our last 10 premier league matches and only lost once in the last 14 (the loss coming against Everton). 2 statistics that I love is that only Man Utd and Chelsea have a better away record than us and a win tonight will be a club record eighth EPL wins on the road (which will mean only Utd better our away form). Probably the most important though is that Bale has scored 4 in his last 3 games taking his overall tally to 17 for the season. We will need to have him at his best for the rest of the season to ensure a minimum of 4th.

However West Ham are unbeaten in their last 3 home matches, but in my opinion only the win against Swansea is the notable result. 6 of their 8 EPL wins have come at home and hey have failed to score more than 1 goal in a game since New Years Day! Comparing this to Tottenham they have failed to score in only one game so far this year in the EPL so the odds would point to at least 1 point for Tottenham.

AVB will be wanting to maintain his winning streak this month to 3 out of 3 and although West Ham need the win to keep out of the relegation scrap, I can see a comfortable 3-1 again for this fixture.
