West Ham will welcome Tottenham to London Stadium on Saturday for a London derby.
The Lillywhites will go without Daniel Levy at the helm for the first time in nearly a quarter of a century. His exit marks the end of an era, but Spurs’ on-pitch issues remain pressing after a 1-0 home loss to Bournemouth ended their perfect league start.
Thomas Frank’s side have been stumbling in derbies too, winning just three of their last 16, and their away record at West Ham is bleak. Not a single win there since 2019.
West Ham, meanwhile, finally clicked under Graham Potter before the break, thumping Forest 3-0 away for their first Premier League win of the campaign. Jarrod Bowen and Lucas Paquetá looked sharp, while Callum Wilson got off the mark, but the Irons still have a problem in front of their own fans.
They haven’t won at the London Stadium in six straight league games, though they have held Spurs to 1-1 draws in each of the last three home meetings. Given both sides’ flaws, another tight contest feels likely, but the Hammers’ momentum could tilt things their way.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.

West Ham vs. Tottenham lineups, team news
The home side have just re-signed veteran goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski on a short-term deal, while Igor Julio has also arrived on loan from Brighton & Hove Albion. Both players are in contention to feature in the game on Saturday.
As far as injuries are concerned for West Ham, Niclas Fullkrug has calf strain, and Potter said he will be assessed in the run-up to kickoff. Additionally, Luis Guilherme and George Earthy are out with shoulder and ankle injuries, respectively.
West Ham will rely on the experience of Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Max Kilman in defence to keep a potent Spurs forward line at bay. From an attacking perspective for the home side, a lot will depend on what Lucas Paqueta and Jarrod Bowen can do to unlock what has been a sturdy Tottenham defence so far this season. The former has scored in his last two domestic games across all competitions and will be looking to add to his tally on Saturday.
West Ham predicted starting XI (4-2-3-1, right to left): Hermansen (GK) — Wan-Bissaka, Kilman, Mavropanos, Diouf — Ward-Prowse, Soucek — Fernandes, Paqueta, Bowen — Wilson
Injured: Fullkrug (calf), Luis Guilherme (shoulder), Earthy (ankle)
Suspended: None
Tottenham will be licking their lips at the sight of a shaky West Ham defence that has conceded eight goals in their first three Premier League games. If Potter's volatile defence is not up to the mark, the Spurs' frontline could be in for a field day on Saturday.
This includes both their new recruits, who could be in line for their Premier League debuts at the London Stadium. Xavi Simons and deadline-day signing Randal Kolo Muani are primed to make their first appearances for the visitors, but only the former should be in with a chance of starting.
On the injury front, Kota Takai (foot), Dejan Kulusevski (knee), James Maddison (ACL) and Radu Dragusin (ACL) are absent for the visitors, although the latter has resumed training as he steps up his recovery. Dominic Solanke and Yves Bissouma are in with a chance of returning from minor ailments.
Tottenham predicted starting XI ( 4-2-3-1, right to left): Vicario (GK) — Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence — Palhinha, Bentancur — Kudus, Sarr, Simons — Richarlison
Injured: Kota Takai (foot), Dejan Kulusevski (knee), James Maddison (ACL), Radu Dragusin (ACL), Solanke (ankle, doubt), Bissouma (undisc., doubt)
Suspended: None
