West Ham have banned fans from bringing a controversial item into the London Stadium for their derby clash with Tottenham this weekend, according to reports.
The two teams will meet for the first time this Premier League season, with no little bad blood between them.
As well there being just 11 miles between the two stadiums, Saturday's match will mark the return of former West Ham star Mohammed Kudus to his old club on the heels of his eye-catching summer move to Spurs.
With a view to ensuring that the scope for trouble is greatly reduced, 'increased security measures' are set to be in place in east London.
