Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Moussa Dembele declares that his side fear no one ahead of tonight's London derby against West Ham United.

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Moussa Dembele has declared that his side feel capable of beating anyone on current form.

Dembele scored a crucial late goal from long range on Thursday to help Spurs keep their Europa League challenge alive at Lyon.

The Belgian playmaker thinks that Spurs can carry their momentum into tonight's London derby against West Ham United.

He told the Daily Mail: "We don't have to fear any team, people have respect for us.

"If you're in a winning mood it's important in the league. We have two more very important games coming up in the league so the confidence will stay high and that's good for us.

"Teams always have a lot of respect for us and they drop back so it's always difficult, but I think we need to do the difference, we have to fight for each other as well. It will be a physical game [at West Ham], for sure, but we are used to it and this is a special match for us and the supporters too because it is a derby."

A win for Andre Villas-Boas's side at Upton Park will lift Spurs above Chelsea to third in the Premier League.
