Tottenham will be aiming for consecutive victories in all competitions this Thursday in the Europa League following their dominant win over West Ham. Spurs put four past their London rivals at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday afternoon and they will be back on home soil in just a few days for a European clash against AZ Alkmaar.
Ange Postecoglou welcomed Son Heung-min and Richarlison back to his team for the clash against the Hammers with both players having missed the last few weeks through injury. Wilson Odobert meanwhile, remains absent but he is edging closer to a return.
While an attacking duo returned for the Lilywhites, Djed Spence was left out of the squad because of a new injury. Concerns surrounding James Maddison had also arrived following his early withdrawal, but Postecoglou quickly eased those.
