Live in-play betting – 

West Ham will be looking for an unlikely positive result from this London derby against red hot Tottenham.

West Ham United have had one of their worst seasons ever this year.

The Hammers have been very unlucky with injuries and summer signings.

They have had to deal with key players getting injured and summer signings flopping.

They are currently 15th in the league table after managing to go through their last 4 games without tasting defeat.

They have won 1 of their last 6 games, losing 2 and drawing 3.

Their last 3 Premier League games have been draws and the last 2 were goalless.

Their home form is not so desirable – they have won only 1 of their last 6 home games, losing 3 and drawing 2.

Tottenham Hotspur are the in-form team in the Premier League at the moment.

Seeing off Arsenal in their last match is a show of how destructive they have become, regardless of their opponents.

They have won all of their last 6 Premier League games including wins over Crystal Palace away and a home win over Arsenal.

They have won 4 of their last 5 away matches in all competitions and they have won all of their last 3 away games in the Premier League.

It’s not surprising to see Tottenham favourites with bookmakers however their odds are very, very short for a London Derby.

Tottenham are currently trading at 1.40 (Yes, £100 stake returns £140 total) while West Ham are currently trading at odds of 8.0 to win at home.
