Tottenham Hotspur confirmed team XI vs West Ham United – Conor Gallagher debut
The Tottenham Hotspur starting line-up for the Premier League match against West Ham United has been announced.
Following a rather short FA Cup run that saw Tottenham Hotspur knocked out in the third round of the competition, Spurs return to Premier League action once again looking to improve upon their difficult first half of the campaign.
This afternoon, they take on struggling London rivals West Ham United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with Thomas Frank hoping his side can get back to winning ways.
Both sides are a far cry from where they want to be, with Spurs sitting 14th in the Premier League table, while West Ham are in the relegation zone in 18th place.

Conor Gallagher will make his Tottenham debut
James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski remain sidelined for this clash, as they continue their rehabilitation from long-term injuries.
Mohammed Kudus, Rodrigo Bentancur and Richarlison are the latest Spurs players to have picked up injuries in recent weeks and face extended spells on the sidelines.
Pape Matar Sarr remains on AFCON duty with Senegal, having booked a place in the final, while Yves Bissouma has returned to north London.
Frank received a boost in the FA Cup last time out, with Dominic Solanke returning and getting a few minutes into his legs following a six-month absence, while Destiny Udogie was named on the bench.
Lucas Bergvall is fit enough to be included in today’s matchday squad, while new signing Conor Gallagher has been handed his Tottenham debut.
This is the Tottenham team which takes to the field at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this afternoon:
Tottenham: Vicario; Porro, Romero, van de Ven, Davies; Gray, Gallagher; Odobert, Xavi, Tel; Kolo Muani.
Subs: Kinsky, Dragusin, Danso, Udogie, Bissouma, Bergvall, Spence, Solanke, Scarlett
West Ham United have managed just one draw in their last five league outings and will be looking to bounce back with a derby-day victory.
Thomas Frank, however, will be hoping his side can get one over their London rivals once more this season after the 3-0 thrashing at the London Stadium.
