A really big game for two teams who have high hopes to finish 4th by the end of the season.

I’ve had a number of bets on Tottenham in 2022 and mainly the team lived up to expectations with the most recent pick aside. I expected Spurs to pick points in Manchester against the dead United, but the entire plan was overturned by Cristiano Ronaldo magic. What this Manchester is all about anyone could see in the following fixture vs. Atletico Madrid (0-1) or prior (the 0-0 vs. Norwich). I tend to think the flop vs.the Rangnick team was a fluke and does not tell a story about what Tottenham is about now. Conte proved my point with an easy win against Brighton (2-0), which brought them back into the race for 4th position.

Tottenham have no distractions in their current calendar - they are long out from any European Cups. This is an obvious advantage vs. West Ham, for example, who had to sweat out a tough and emotional 120 minutes win against Sevilla on Thursday night. They basically had no time to recover or properly prepare for this London derby. With the short squad at Moyes hands, I do believe it may be a big issue when they face Tottenham. Hosts, in contrast, are basically injury free and can count on their star triangle Son-Kane-Kulusevsi to lead the attack.

Speaking of attack, Spurs have been creating and scoring with striking ease in recent weeks, which only underlines their uprising under Conte. 2 goals vs. Man United and Brighton, 5 vs. Everton and 4 vs. Leeds. FA Cup aside, in the last 4 EPL games Tottenham have netted a minimum of 2 goals.

I look forward to a relatively comfortable home win here as West Ham will gradually fall out of the Champions League race and shift their focus towards Europa League, which they can realistically win this year.

对于两支希望在赛季结束前获得第四名的球队来说，这是一场非常重要的比赛。

我对2022年托特纳姆热刺下了很多赌注，主要是这支球队在最近的选秀中不负众望。我原以为热刺会在曼联的比赛中拿分，但整个计划被c罗的魔术推翻了。任何人都可以在接下来对阵马德里竞技(0-1)或之前对阵诺里奇(0-0)的比赛中看到这个曼彻斯特的一切。我倾向于认为对兰尼克的失败是一个侥幸，并不能说明托特纳姆现在是什么样子。孔特以2-0轻松战胜布莱顿的比赛证明了我的观点，让他们重新回到了第四名的位置。

托特纳姆在他们目前的日程表上没有什么值得分心的事情——他们已经很长时间没有参加任何欧洲杯了。这对西汉姆来说是一个明显的优势，例如，在周四晚上对阵塞维利亚的比赛中，西汉姆不得不在120分钟的比赛中挥汗如土。他们基本上没有时间来恢复或者为这场伦敦德比做好准备。由于莫耶斯手下的阵容不足，我相信在他们面对热刺时这将是一个大问题。相比之下，主队基本上没有伤病，可以依靠他们的三角球星库鲁塞夫西(son - kine - kulusevsi)领导进攻。

说到进攻，热刺在最近几周的进攻中创造和进球都很轻松，这也凸显了他们在孔戴的领导下的进步。对阵曼联和布莱顿时他们进了2个球，对阵埃弗顿时进了5个，对阵利兹时进了4个。除了足总杯，在过去的4场英超比赛中，托特纳姆至少进了2球。

我期待在这里取得一场相对舒适的主场胜利，因为西汉姆将逐渐退出冠军联赛的争夺，并将他们的注意力转移到欧洲联赛上，他们今年实际上可以赢得欧洲联赛。
