Manchester City’s record at Liverpool absolutely stinks whilst Tottenham Hotspur are eyeing top spot

Tottenham Hotspur could be top of the Premier League tonight.

By Daniel Coffey West Ham United vs Tottenham Hotspur Spurs travel to the Boleyn Ground tonight knowing that a win would take them top of the table for the first time this season. Leicester's 2-2 draw against West Brom meant that a win for Tottenham on Wednesday would send them top of the table on goal difference. But they are up against a good West Ham side who are pushing for a European place this season. Stats: Tottenham have beaten West Ham eight times at Upton Park in the Premier League era. Their most recent being a 1-0 win at the beginning of the 2014/15 season. Harry Kane has scored three goals and has one assist in four Premier League appearances against West Ham. West Ham have picked up nine points from only four matches against other London clubs. So, for all you West Ham fans out there, be worried about Harry Kane. He loves playing against yis. Arsenal vs Swansea City Arsenal welcome Swansea City to the Emirates Stadium tonight looking to regain ground on the Premier League leaders Leicester. Arsenal lost 3-2 to Man United on Sunday and are now six points behind Leicester in the race for the title. They are up against a Swansea side who are hovering dangerously above the relegation zone (in fact they are only three points above it) and they are coming off the back of a 2-1 defeat to Arsenal's bitter rivals Tottenham at White Hart Lane on Sunday. Stats: Danny Welbeck has scored three goals in four Barclays Premier league appearances against Swansea.   Arsenal have failed to score in four of their last six games in all competitions at the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal have won eight and lost just one of their last 12 Barclays Premier League games at the Emirates Stadium - their only defeat coming against Chelsea back in January. Swansea have only beaten Arsenal twice in north London in their history - most recently a 1-0 win in May last season. Manchester United vs Watford Manchester United welcome Watford to Old Trafford tonight on the back of three straight wins in all competitions against Shrewsbury, Midtjylland and Arsenal respectively. They are up against a Watford side who have lost just one of their last six matches in all competitions and are hoping to spring an upset tonight. Stats: Manchester United have won the last 10 matches against Watford in all competitions. Watford have failed to score in five of their last seven Barclays Premier League games. Odion Ighalo has scored just one goal in eight league appearances so far in 2016. Manchester United have used a Premier League high of 33 players in the opening 27 matches this season. After the events on Sunday, we're hoping for some more comedy gold from you, Louis. https://twitter.com/BBCSporf/status/703991196734136321 Liverpool vs Manchester City Liverpool host Manchester City at Anfield looking to avenge their Capital One Cup final defeat to the same opposition last Sunday. Liverpool were beaten 3-1 on penalties by Man City at Wembley but will be hoping to get one over the Sky Blues on the Reds' own patch tonight. Stats: Liverpool have won three of the last four meetings between the two teams (lost one). Manchester City have won none of their last 12 Barclays Premier League visits to Anfield - losing eight times in the process. City haven't lost three league games on the spin since November 2008. Phillipe Coutinho has scored in five of his six appearances against Manchester City, including one in the Capital One Cup final on Sunday. Stoke City vs Newcastle United Stoke City welcome Newcastle United to the Britannia Stadium tonight hoping to add to their two recent victories against Bournemouth and Aston Villa respectively. They are up against a Newcastle United side who are struggling for form at the moment and they are off the back of a 5-1 drubbing against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge a couple of weeks ago and they will want to bounce back from that defeat. Stats: Stoke have won four of the last five home league matches against the Magpies (lost one). Newcastle have lost 16 of their last 20 Barclays Premier League away games, including the last five in a row. Marko Arnautovic has scored six goals in his last eight Barclays Premier League appearances at the Britannia Stadium. This fixture doesn't hold much hope for the Newcastle fans out there.
