History of the West Bromwich Albion v Tottenham Hotspur fixture

Tottenham H. face a trip to West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns on Wednesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Spurs will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in April 2003, with Tottenham H. inflicting a narrow 2 - 3 defeat upon the Baggies in a Premiership match.
