Spurs vs West Ham LIVE: Club Friendlies LIVE – TOT vs WHU LIVE – Tottenham Hotspur take on West Ham United in their very first pre-season friendly match of 2023-24.

On the other hand, this is West Ham’s third pre-season friendly. They have already won two matches within a week against Boreham Wood and Perth Glory.

Tottenham Hotspur are aiming to start the season on a positive note after a wildly unsuccessful season last time around. The chaos on the field reached the dressing room when coach Antonio Conte was seen fuming mad at his players. They ended the season in 8th place in the Premier League table. This means that they will not be partaking in any European competition for the first time in the last 14 years. They will look to bring back the glory after such an underwhelming season with a win.
Spurs management started on their path by choosing the perfect new manager for the team this season. Chairman Daniel Levy went through several names including Arne Slot, Luis Enrique, Julian Nagelsmann, and even former coach Mauricio Pochettino. However, as all of them decided against the position, Levy approached Postecoglou who won Celtic three trophies last season. In search of trophies after 15 trophyless seasons, Postecoglou will look to win against West Ham. Then they will face Leicester City, Lion City Sailors, Shakhtar Donetsk, and Barcelona before starting the season in August.
West Ham United had a terrible time in the Premier League last season. Their was a scare for months that they might even get relegated at the end of the season. However, thankfully, they ended the season in 14th position in the league table, only 6 points safe from the relegation zone. This was also 6 places and 20 points lower than their opponent Spurs. However, it can’t go unnoticed that made up for their underperforming form in the Europa Conference League. They lifted that trophy at the end of the season.
The Hammers are facing Spurs with two big pre-season friendly wins already in their bag. They started their friendlies campaign with a 4-1 against Boreham Wood last week. Then they flew to Australia to take on Perth Glory and won 6-2 against them. Jarrod Bowen scored a brace, while Danny Ings, Gianluca Scamacca, Divin Mubama, and Emerson Palmieri all got on the scoresheet. This may be a good record, but they have remained without a win against Spurs in their last 4 meetings.
