West Ham United vs Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham missed the chance to move into fourth position in the Premier League after a 1-1 draw with West Ham at London Stadium. Spurs took the lead inside five minutes through Johnson, who scored his fifth goal of the season from close range after getting onto Werner's low cross. However, the visitors couldn’t add to their lead, with the Hammers levelling later in the first half. Zouma latched into Bowen's inswinging corner from the right and directed his effort across the goal and into the net. Both teams had a chance to win it, but missed huge opportunities. Antonio did brilliantly to get away from Van de Ven, but he struck his shot straight at Vicario. Udogie then had an opportunity for Spurs deep into stoppage time, but his low effort was stopped by Fabianski. It was a very close contest, with West Ham creating an xG of 1.16 compared to Tottenham's 0.96. Next up, the Irons travel to Wolves, with Spurs hosting Nottingham Forest. That's all for today, goodbye.
