Tottenham hold a commanding lead in the all-time Premier League head-to-head record, with 28 wins compared to West Ham’s 19, alongside 13 draws across 60 meetings since the league’s inception in 1992. The first recorded Premier League fixture between the clubs took place on December 28, 1993. When accounting for all competitive matches dating back to the first meeting in 1898, the gap widens further: Tottenham have accumulated 103 wins from 227 total meetings.

Overall head-to-head record

StatMuse records 28 Premier League wins for Tottenham, 19 for West Ham, and 13 draws — a record that reflects the north London club’s historical dominance in this fixture. WorldFootball reports slightly different figures for the same competition, showing Tottenham with 72 wins from 169 Premier League matches. These discrepancies stem from how different sources categorize matches across competitions and time periods. Sports Mole’s comprehensive tally across all competitions shows 227 meetings, with Tottenham winning 103, West Ham 68, and 56 draws — the most authoritative count available.

Recent matches breakdown

The most recent encounter saw West Ham claim a 2-1 victory on January 17, 2026, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with goals from Crysencio Summerville at 15 minutes and Callum Wilson in stoppage time. Earlier in the 2024/2025 season, Tottenham responded emphatically with a 4-1 win on October 19, 2024. The April 2, 2024 meeting ended in a 1-1 draw — the fourth consecutive match without a winner in regular time. This pattern of tight results has characterized recent seasons, with neither side able to establish clear supremacy.

The implication: West Ham’s recent competitiveness suggests the historical Premier League record (28-19) may narrow further if current form holds.

West Ham vs Tottenham last 10 results

Looking at the last ten competitive meetings, Tottenham have maintained a slight edge, winning four of those encounters compared to West Ham’s three victories, with three draws. The aggregate goal difference across these matches favors Tottenham by seven goals, reflecting their typically superior attacking output in this fixture. However, West Ham have improved considerably in recent seasons, with two of their three wins coming in the last three encounters.

Last 5 matches

The most recent five meetings tell a story of genuine competitiveness. West Ham’s 2-1 victory in January 2026 marks their second win in three fixtures, with Crysencio Summerville and Callum Wilson finding the net. Prior to that, Tottenham’s 4-1 triumph on October 19, 2024, represented their biggest margin of victory in recent seasons. The April 2024 draw (1-1) and May 2025 draw (1-1) demonstrate West Ham’s growing ability to compete throughout the full 90 minutes.

Key results like 3-3 draw

While the specific “3-3 draw” referenced in search queries doesn’t appear in the verified recent records, high-scoring draws and matches have characterized this rivalry historically. The 11v11 database confirms multiple meetings with multiple goals, with particularly memorable encounters during the 2010s when both clubs were competing for European qualification. The current phase shows tighter, lower-scoring affairs as both clubs battle mid-table and face pressure from relegation stakes.

The pattern: West Ham’s late-game resilience in the January 2026 match marks a psychological shift that could influence future encounters in this tightly contested rivalry.

Current West Ham vs Tottenham standings

Heading into the January 2026 fixture, both clubs occupied uncomfortable positions in the Premier League table — Tottenham 18th and West Ham 17th, separated by a single point. The 37 points Tottenham had accumulated compared to West Ham’s 36 points made the fixture a de facto six-pointer for clubs fighting to avoid the relegation zone. The result had immediate implications for the table, with West Ham moving temporarily above their rivals.

Premier League table positions

According to Sofascore’s pre-match data for the 2025/2026 season, Tottenham ranked 18th while West Ham sat 17th — positions neither club would have anticipated at the season’s start. The Premier League’s official records confirm this mid-season context, with both clubs experiencing significant fluctuation from their traditional finishing positions. The January 2026 result shifted those dynamics further, with West Ham climbing to 14th place following their victory.

Points comparison

The single-point gap between the clubs (37 vs 36 pre-match) represents the tightest margin between them in recent memory. Historically, Tottenham have finished well above West Ham in the final table, but the 2025/2026 season has seen both clubs underperform relative to expectations. This parity makes the head-to-head fixture increasingly significant — not merely a local derby, but a match with direct implications for European qualification or relegation survival.

The catch: Both clubs’ unexpected proximity to the relegation zone transforms this derby from a mid-table formality into a match with season-defining consequences.

Who are West Ham’s biggest rivals?

Tottenham Hotspur represent West Ham United’s most significant sporting rivalry, though the club maintains several passionate derbies across east and west London. The West Ham-Tottenham fixture carries unique intensity due to geographic proximity, shared history, and contrasting club cultures — the working-class roots of the Irons versus the traditionally more prosperous north London identity of Spurs. This rivalry has intensified as both clubs have competed in the same league divisions for over a century.

Tottenham rivalry details

The fixture between West Ham and Tottenham generates particular passion among supporters because both clubs draw heavily from the same city fanbase. Tottenham’s relocation from White Hart Lane to the new stadium just miles from the London Stadium has geographically tightened an already concentrated rivalry. Matches between the clubs consistently sell out, with away allocations typically exhausted within hours of confirmation. The competitive element adds stakes to what would otherwise be a purely local affair.

London derbies overview

Beyond Tottenham, West Ham maintains fierce rivalries with Millwall (the primary east London derby), Arsenal (a cross-capital rivalry with historical class tension), and Chelsea (the west London derby). Among these, the Tottenham fixture has grown in significance as both clubs have competed for similar league positions and European spots in recent decades. The 227 all-competitions meetings between West Ham and Tottenham make it one of the most-played fixtures in English football history.

Head-to-head discrepancies across sources

Data across multiple platforms shows notable variance in reported head-to-head records. FotMob reports Tottenham with 15 wins, West Ham 12, and 7 draws — figures that appear to cover a limited recent timeframe rather than all competitions. StatMuse counters with 28-13-19 for Premier League only, representing a more comprehensive scope. WorldFootball’s database shows Tottenham with 72 wins from 169 PL matches, suggesting different categorization methods across sources.

The most authoritative figures come from Sports Mole, which documents 227 all-competitions meetings: Tottenham 103 wins, West Ham 68, draws 56. AiScore reports 62 matches since 1995 with Tottenham winning 28, West Ham 20, and 14 draws — a subset that doesn’t conflict with the comprehensive total. The discrepancy between FotMob’s limited figures and StatMuse’s Premier League-specific data illustrates why readers should verify which competitions and timeframes their preferred source covers.

Historical context: key meetings

The rivalry extends far beyond the Premier League era. The first competitive meeting between the clubs occurred in 1898, with the rivalry progressing through multiple league competitions and cup fixtures over subsequent decades. League Cup meetings in 1975/1976 and numerous Division One fixtures during the mid-20th century contributed to the accumulated total that now exceeds 227 meetings.

Notable historical encounters include West Ham’s 3-2 victory at Tottenham in League Division Two on December 26, 1936, and multiple high-scoring affairs during the 1960s and 1970s. The November 2012 meeting at White Hart Lane — a 3-1 Tottenham victory featuring Gareth Bale and a double from Jermain Defoe — demonstrated the north London club’s continued ability to dominate when competing for European places. These historical results provide context for the current fixture’s intensity.

Tottenham Hotspur have a W28 D13 L19 record against West Ham in the Premier League all-time.

— Sports Mole (football analyst)

The pattern emerging from this data is clear: Tottenham have dominated this fixture for most of English football history, but West Ham have narrowed the gap considerably in recent seasons. With both clubs now fighting for survival rather than European places, the derby carries stakes neither set of supporters anticipated at the season’s start. The January 2026 result — West Ham’s first away win at Tottenham in recent memory — represents a psychological breakthrough for a club that has long played second fiddle in this particular rivalry.

The implication: One victory won’t erase decades of north London dominance, but West Ham’s January 2026 result signals a potential shift in the psychological dynamic of this fixture.
