WHAT THE MANAGERS SAY
West Ham manager Slaven Bilic: “This is a big match anyway. It is a derby, whether you need the points or not, it’s a derby game against Spurs at our stadium.
“They need points, we need points, so it is a massive game for us and a massive game for them. We will try to get the points that will mathematically secure our status.”
Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino: “Of course it is a great opportunity to close the gap but we are playing another derby against West Ham and it will be very tough. The pressure is on us to win.
“The team this week is in a good mood after the victory over Arsenal but this will be another difficult game and we need to be ready to fight.”
