After three defeats in a row, Tottenham won a point in the game against Manchester City. The London derby against West Ham is on the program on Thursday. The guests have not lost any of their last three games. With three points, West Ham can move closer to Tottenham and gain ground on the places for international business. Tottenham was initially able to stop the negative series of three defeats. Dejan Kulusevski's last-minute strike secured Spurs a point at the Etihad Stadium. The fans experienced a spectacular 3-3 draw. The league leaders in the first few matchdays had less momentum in the previous matches. There had been no defeat until the 1-4 loss against Chelsea, in which two players, Cristian Romero and Destiny Udogie, saw the red card. While Tottenham were unable to find any offensive means against the compact Wolves, they lacked efficiency against Aston Villa. Only one of the 18 shots crossed the line. At the same time, however, the defense was shaky again. Last weekend West Ham only managed a 1-1 draw at home against Crystal Palace. The spectators saw an unspectacular game with few opportunities on both sides. The previous results against Burnley 2-1 win and Nottingham 3-2 were more encouraging. The Hammers also perform well in Europe. After four wins in five matches, a draw in the last home game against Freiburg was enough to win the group and move straight into the round of 16.
