Tottenham and West Ham meet this evening in a Premier League London derby both sides need to win.
Spurs restarted their season with a 1-1 draw against Manchester United on Friday night - a result that showed promise, but also leaves Jose Mourinho's side with a real battle to qualify for Champions League qualification.
Things are much more perilous for West Ham, as a 2-0 home defeat to Wolves on Saturday leaves David Moyes' Hammers above the relegation zone on goal difference alone.
Date, time and venue
Tottenham vs West Ham is scheduled for a 8:15pm BST kick-off on Tuesday, June 23, 2020.
The match will be behind closed doors at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with no fans due to be present due to government guidelines regarding coronavirus.

Prediction: Tottenham 2-1 West Ham
Neither side looked particularly convincing in their first games back, though Mourinho will be heartened by Spurs' first-half display vs Man United.
West Ham will need a serious upturn in form to trouble Spurs, and a home win looks likely - but Mourinho's men looked tired enough on Friday to suggest it could be close.
