Tottenham XI vs West Ham: Confirmed team news, predicted lineup, injury latest for Premier League | OneFootball

Spurs have lost three more key players ahead of a bad-tempered derby

Tottenham are juggling yet another huge injury blow as they prepare to face West Ham in the Premier League.

Head coach Thomas Frank remains under pressure to deliver results, and will look at the visit of bottom-of-the-table Hammers to get a much-needed win on the board.

But Spurs will be without Richarlison for the next seven weeks due to a hamstring injury.

Richarlison was withdrawn half an hour into Spurs’ 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa in the FA Cup last weekend, and joins Mohammed Kudus, Rodrigo Bentancur, Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison on the sidelines.

Gallagher could come straight in for Bentancur at the heart of midfield, and Frank has also been boosted by the returns of Dominic Solanke and Destiny Udogie.

Solanke, who has been out since August with a recurring ankle injury, came off the bench as Spurs crashed out of the FA Cup at home to Aston Villa last weekend.

Udogie was also named on the bench for the first time since suffering a hamstring injury at the start of December.

The Italian is set to compete with 19-year-old Brazilian left back Souza for minutes, with Spurs close to completing a £13million move for the Santos defender.

Yves Bissouma has returned to the club and is available for selection after Mali’s elimination from the Africa Cup of Nations.

The 29-year-old has, however, yet to play a competitive game under Frank, owing to injury and disciplinary issues.

Tottenham predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Vicario, Porro, Romero, van de Ven, Spence, Palhinha, Gallagher, Odobert, Simons, Tel, Kolo Muani

Injured: Maddison, Kulusevski, Bentancur, Kudus, Richarlison

Doubts: Bergvall

Date and time: 3pm GMT on Saturday January 17, 2026

Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
