The battle for European soccer next season heats up as two of London's biggest rivals meet in tonight's live streaming matchup between West Ham and Tottenham.

West Ham have advanced to the last eight of the Europa League, but their place in next season's continental competition is by no means guaranteed, given that their next round opponent is Bayer Leverkusen, the undefeated leaders in the Bundesliga. The Hammers have a good record against Spurs at home and are undefeated in their last three meetings, winning two and drawing one.

Tottenham are now unbeaten in 10 games since the start of the season, and they are now playing a competitive game against the rest of the field. Man City, Arsenal, and Liverpool are almost alone in the race, while Spurs and Villa are in the battle for fourth place, but with 36 teams in the Champions League next season, a fifth place finish in the Premier League could help them qualify. Can Ange Postecoglou's team take another step toward their goal by earning bragging rights in their hometown?

The team lineup is as follows:

West Ham XI: Fabianski (GK); Koufal, Zouma, Mavropanos, Emerson; Ward-Prowse, Soucek, Paqueta; Kudus, Bowen, Antonio

Tottenham XI: Vicario (GK); Pau Romero, Romero, van der Veen, Udogie; Bissouma, Bentancourt; Johnson, Maddison, Werner; Song
