Prediction: Match to end in 2-2 draw
Best Odds: 10/1
Tottenham Hotspur and Everton will lock horns with each other at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in North London next weekend. The Premier League match between Ange Postecoglou’s side and Sean Dyche’s team is scheduled to kick off at 3 pm UK time next Saturday.
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham Hotspur recently went through a bad spell and were struggling to win matches and were conceding far too many goals than they would have liked. The North London club have recovered from that dip in form and are looking like a top team once again.
Spurs got the better of Nottingham Forest 2-0 away from home at the City Ground in the Premier League last Friday evening. It came after a 4-1 hammering of Newcastle United at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in North London in the league. Things are starting to look very rosy for Ange Postecoglou’s side.
Tottenham are fifth in the Premier League table at the moment with 33 points from 17 matches. They are a point behind defending champions and fourth-placed Manchester City and are six points behind leaders Arsenal.
Team News:
Tottenham Hotspur head coach Ange Postecoglou is likely to line up his team in a 4-2-3-1 formation. Guglielmo Vicario will be in goal for the North London club. Pedro Porro, Cristian Romero, Ben Davies and Destiny Udogie will be the four defenders. Pape Matar Sarr will have Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg alongside himself in holding midfield. Yves Bissouma is suspended. Brennan Johnson could miss out due to injury concerns. Oliver Skipp could replace him on the right. Dejan Kulusevski and Son Heung-Min will start. Richarlison will lead the line for Spurs.
Everton
Everton are not out of the woods yet, but Sean Dyche’s side are doing extremely well. While teams around them are stuttering and struggling, even a 10-point penalty is not stopping the Merseyside club from extending the gap between themselves and the bottom three.
The Toffees are 16th in the Premier League table at the moment with 16 points from 17 matches. They are as many as seven points above the relegation zone. Things are looking very promising for Everton, who would be above Chelsea had they not been deducted 10 points.
Everton have won their last four Premier League matches. The Toffees beat Burnley 2-0 away from home at Turf Moor in the league this past weekend. The Merseyside club will take on Fulham at Goodison Park in the quarter-finals of the EFL Cup on Tuesday evening.
Team News:
Everton manager Sean Dyche is line up his team in a 5-4-1 formation. Dominic Calvert-Lewin will lead the line for the Toffees. Jordan Pickford will be in goal. Jack Harrison, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Amadou Onana and James Garner will be the four midfielders. Nathan Patterson, Ben Godfrey, Michael Keane, James Tarkowski and Dwight McNeil will be the five defenders.
Key Factors to Consider
Tottenham Hotspur have won their last 2 Premier League matches.
Everton have won their last 4 Premier League matches.
Tottenham Hotspur have conceded 23 goals in 17 Premier League games.
Everton have scored 22 goals in 17 Premier League games.
Son Heung-min has scored 10 goals and given 4 assists in 17 Premier League matches for Tottenham Hotspur.
Conclusion
Both Tottenham Hotspur and Everton have good teams and both are in good form. Although Spurs will have home advantage, at this level, that does not count for much. It is hard to see the Toffees collapse in North London. It is very likely that the match at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will end in a draw.
