MATCH PREVIEW
LAST MEETING: West Ham 1 Spurs 1 (25-11-07, Barclays Premier League) LAST TIME AT WHITE HART TIME: Spurs 1 West Ham 0 (22-10-06, Barclays Premier League) HEAD-TO-HEAD: Spurs 52 wins, West Ham 43 wins, 34 draws FORM: Until Saturday, Spurs were in fine form - a Carling Cup final victory over Chelsea, a place in the last 16 of the UEFA Cup, and unbeaten in four Premier League games.
However, that good form came crashing down at the weekend with a dismal 4-1 hammering at lowly Birmingham.
Boss Juande Ramos could be forgiven fielding a weakened line up, given the club's involvment in Europe against dutch giants PSV on Thursday.
But he will have to pull out a positive result against bitter rivals West Ham on Sunday to appease the fans.
DANGER MAN: Without doubt, Dimitar Berbatov is one of the most gifted forwards in Europe.
The Bulgarian international has been consistently linked with a move away from the north London club, notably to Manchester United.
He has formed a formidable partnership up front alongside Robbie Keane and his recent good form has seen him score four goals in his last seven games.
FUN FACT: Strictly Come Dancing presenter Bruce Forsyth (pictured) is openly both a Spurs AND Arsenal fan.
The Edmonton-born King of Saturday night television - who celebrated his 80th birthday last week - explained: "I know this isn't supposed to happen but as a kid during the war Arsenal's ground was a searchlight base for German bombers so they used the Spurs ground and I grew up watching both teams." Didn't he do well.
PREDICTION: Spurs 1 West Ham 1
