West Ham vs Tottenham live: Team news and line-ups from Premier League clash

The Premier League returns this weekend with West Ham hosting Tottenham after a period of upheaval for both clubs.

Graham Potter’s Hammers endured a dismal start to the season – including a 5-1 thrashing by Chelsea – but will be hoping to have picked up where they left off, after beating Nottingham Forest 3-0 in their last game before the international break.

Spurs meanwhile started more promisingly but then lost 1-0 at home to Bournemouth and will be under pressure to bounce back, particularly at the home of their bitter rivals.

This game will likely have some extra spice to it as Mohammed Kudus returns to London Stadium after his summer transfer, with the manner of his exit and statement that he “only wanted Spurs” unlikely to have made him many friends among the West Ham faithful.

Welcome to The Independent’s coverage of today’s Premier League action between West Ham and Tottenham.

The Hammers are hoping to build on the back of an impressive victory over Nottingham Forest before the international break while Spurs want to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Bournemouth.
