Tottenham Hotspur vs West Ham will kick off at a different time following a ‘broadcaster request’

According to the Tottenham Hotspur official site, the Premier League match between Tottenham Hotspur vs West Ham will be rescheduled upon a ‘broadcast request’ with the approval of the league.

The PL fixture between Spurs and the Hammers on 20th March was originally supposed to kick off at 2 pm (BST), but will now start at 4:30 pm (BST). The fixture has just been delayed by a gap of two hours and that hopefully, won’t affect the club in any manner.

The Irons have proven to be staunch opponents and have fared really well against the top four clubs this season. David Moyes’ men managed to eliminate Manchester City from the EFL Cup and are currently one of only two teams that have defeated Liverpool in the PL.

Our London rivals are in a good spot at the moment and at this moment, are closer to a UEFA Champions League qualification spot as opposed to us. Every win seem like a massive step in the right direction and the Lilywhites will be hoping to conquer West Ham on the day.

What does the season hold for Tottenham Hotspur?

The North Londoners have had an oscillating campaign so far, to say the least. The club from N-17 managed to do the league double-over defending PL champions Manchester City, but a shock exit to minnows Middlesbrough in the FA Cup has been a testimony of their inconsistency.

Antonio Conte has also been left a frustrated figure on several occasions as his side has failed to assert themselves in the middle of the park. Whilst new signing Dejan Kulusevski has made an impact of sorts, there still seems to be quite a few missing pieces in the puzzle if Spurs are to compete at the highest level again.

An early exit from the UEFA Europa Conference League means that a top-four finish seems like the most attainable target for Spurs at the moment. That is easier said than done at the moment as the North Londoners head into the business end of the campaign.

The North Londoners will have to pull up their socks if they are to salvage anything from this season. Conte has worked his magic in his previous stints with clubs like Chelsea, Juventus, and Inter Milan but there is still a long way to go if he is to replicate the same kind of success with Tottenham Hotspur.
