"For the first time since December 2000, Tottenham will take to the field without Levy in a leadership role. Back then, the club drew 1-1 with Arsenal in the North London derby before Levy assumed board duties two days later and eventually became executive chairman. His 24-year reign delivered two pieces of silverware and plenty of top-four finishes, but the hierarchy opted for change, installing former Arsenal executive Peter Charrington as non-executive chairman."
"In contrast, Graham Potter's West Ham arrive on the back of a morale-boosting 3-0 win away to Nottingham Forest, courtesy of goals from Jarrod Bowen, Lucas Paqueta and Callum Wilson. That victory ended a miserable run that had seen them beaten by Sunderland, Chelsea, and Wolves. Still, the Irons remain winless in their last six home league fixtures, a run including three draws and three losses."
West Ham host Tottenham at the London Stadium in a London derby. Tottenham begin life without long-serving chairman Daniel Levy after his departure during the international break, ending a 24-year tenure that delivered two trophies and numerous top-four finishes; Peter Charrington has been appointed non-executive chairman. Spurs have lost 17 of their last 23 Premier League matches not involving newly-promoted sides and have only three wins in their last 16 London derbies. West Ham come off a 3-0 win at Nottingham Forest but remain winless in six home league fixtures. New Tottenham signings Xavi Simons and Randal Kolo Muani could feature.
