Spurs will be looking to reignite their form again after suffering an away defeat to Brighton after cruising to a 2-0 lead while West Ham will be looking to find results under Julen Lopetegui

Julen Lopetegui enters the post-international break period with renewed optimism, eager to build on a crucial victory as his West Ham squad prepares for a London derby against Tottenham.

The new Hammers manager had been feeling the heat following a series of disappointing defeats. However, his team rediscovered their attacking prowess with a commanding 4-1 triumph over Ipswich Town at home. This result has somewhat eased the pressure on Lopetegui, moving him down the list of potential Premier League managerial casualties. Yet, the Spaniard knows that his costly squad must now translate this form into consistent Premier League performances.

Travelling to face Spurs will not be straightforward despite their recent stumble—surrendering a 2-0 advantage to lose against Brighton—Tottenham remain a formidable opponent. Ange Postecoglou’s side seemed to be finding their rhythm before being undone by Brighton's swift second-half comeback, capped by Danny Welbeck's decisive strike.

For Tottenham, the defeat has reignited scrutiny on Postecoglou as he attempts to demonstrate that his tactical flair is matched by effective results. Both managers will be keenly aware of the stakes involved in this derby, with goals expected to flow given both teams' attacking capabilities and recent defensive vulnerabilities.
