These percentages are estimated without bookmaker odds and rely on the factors above. Tottenham’s stronger recent form (three wins in five vs two wins in five for West Ham), their unbeaten H2H run over four games, and home pitch advantage justify favouring them. West Ham’s recent away defeats and overall inconsistency make them the underdog, but a draw remains a live possibility given the history of close results between the sides.
