The Premier League continues to increase people’s interest with the most exciting title race in a decade, with three teams having real chances of racing the title in May.
However, we take a look a little bit lower as we get a remarkable clash between the 5th-placed Tottenham and the 7th-placed West Ham this Tuesday.
Both teams have objectives related to the European competitions, so they need to start a winning streak as soon as possible.

Why Bet on West Ham?
West Ham come from an exciting clash against Newcastle in their most recent match. They lost, but they can rescue some positive things from the experience and should, within the possibilities, stop including Kalvin Phillips in the lineup.
The English international has been a total disaster for a team accustomed to making good profits from loan deals, and in the last game, he was key for the Magpies’ comeback, conceding a penalty and disappearing in the game after. That controversial defeat made it three games without a win in the Premier League, but West Ham are far from the only inconsistent side fighting for a place in next year’s Europa League.
Whatever the case, the Hammers can go to within a point of Manchester United, who has a complicated match with Chelsea on Thursday. In that sense, even if they have some time without beating a Big Six side (Arsenal in December), they must recover now.
Being hosts, this could be their chance to prove they can make it.
Why Bet on Tottenham?
Tottenham is coming in from a victory, and they are trying to jump from their Europa League spot to a UEFA Champions League one as they play visitors in their next match. Either way, their 17 wins, five draws, and seven losses record has placed them eight points ahead from the 6th spot.
The Spurs were on the right side of a comeback on the weekend as they edged Luton at home. Ange Postecoglou is out to end Tottenham’s poor recent run at London Stadium, and a win could see them leapfrog Aston Villa ahead of their rivals’ trip to Manchester City.
The visitors have the better momentum, and it is now time for them to capitalize and make sure they can jump a few spots ahead. They are favorites but have stumbled many times before in their attempts to overtake Villa, so another slip could be quite damaging to the team’s morale.
West Ham vs. Tottenham Final Betting Analysis:
West Ham’s defense will be a concern for Moyes, whose side has conceded at least once in each of their last 10 Premier League games, shipping 24 goals in total during this run.
The Hammers’ 54 goals conceded overall this season is just one fewer than they shipped last term. Meanwhile, only in 2010-11 have they had a higher goal conceded per game average than their 1.80 in 2023-24 (they lost the category that time).
Tottenham’s offensive output seems like the thing to look out for, and we are expecting them to be able to take the opportunities as they come and send just enough shots into the net to get a clear victory over West Ham here. We’ll go for a 1-3.
Go for a victory for the visitors at 2.17. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $117 for a total payout of $217.
