West Ham United vs. Tottenham Hotspur: game time, TV channels, how to watch

Hope everyone enjoyed their quiet, relaxing international break!

Tottenham Hotspur Football Club enters a new era on Saturday, bringing in Jose Mourinho to replace Mauricio Pochettino. No one knows exactly what to expect out of the Special One, but given how this season (and all of 2019, at least domestically) has gone for Spurs, some sort of change was definitely needed.

Mourinho is not known for the most exciting brand of football, favoring disciplined defense and counter-attacking instead of blitzing and pressing, but odds are there will not be too many drastic changes during his first match at the helm. The squad is mostly healthy, so the new manager will have plenty of options across the pitch.

Perennial pain West Ham United is the home side, and the Hammers are somehow even lower than Tottenham in the Premier League table. Finishing in the top four seems like a long shot at this point, but if Mourinho wants to make a charge back up the table, matches like these must result in three points.

This has been an extremely strange calendar year for Spurs, seeing their best European finish in forever and sacking one of their most impactful managers just six months later. Saturday represents the dawn of a new chapter; almost anything can lie in store.
