Hello and welcome to live match coverage of the Premier League fixture between Tottenham and Everton at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The home side come into this game looking to bounce back following their 3-1 defeat to Sheffield United in their previous match. Everton, meanwhile, will be full of confidence after beating Leicester City 2-1 last time out in the league.
TOTTENHAM (4-2-3-1): Hugo Lloris; Serge Aurier, Toby Alderweireld, Eric Dier, Ben Davies; Harry Winks, Moussa Sissoko; Lucas Moura, Giovani Lo Celso, Son Heung-min; Harry Kane.
EVERTON (4-4-2): Jordan Pickford; Seamus Coleman, Michael Keane, Mason Holgate, Lucas Digne; Alex Iwobi, Tom Davies, Andre Gomes, Gylfi Sigurdsson; Richarlison, Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
TOTTENHAM SUBS: Paulo Gazzaniga, Davinson Sanchez, Jan Vertonghen, Dennis Cirkin, Gedson Fernandes, Oliver Skipp, Tanguy Ndombele, Erik Lamela, Steven Bergwijn.
Since the resumption of the Premier League, Spurs have won only one of their three fixtures. Moreover, in all competitions, the hosts have tasted victory just once in their previous nine games. As a result, Jose Mourinho’s team have lost ground in the race for a Champions League spot, but victory over Everton will put them back into contention. The Toffees, on the other hand, are unbeaten since returning to action. In that time, Carlo Ancelotti’s side have conceded one goal and currently sit 10th in the table, just one place behind their opposition. The visitors will still be hopeful of finishing the season in a European spot, with a win today potentially reducing the gap to fifth-placed Wolves to five points.
The teams are out, and kick-off will soon be upon us here at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Despite being ahead, Mourinho will be looking for more from his side after the restart. The hosts have failed to cause Everton any real issues with their build-up play often being far too slow. Moreover, Kane has struggled to get into the game thus far, which has resulted in a disjointed offensive display from Spurs. Much like the home side, Ancelotti’s team have not been at their best. Richarlison looks the most likely to make something happen for the Toffees, who will be keen to come out with a more attack-minded approach in the second half.
The hosts will be seeking to secure back-to-back wins next time out in the league when they travel to face Bournemouth. Everton, on the other hand, host Southampton as they look for a return to winning ways.
That brings an end to our coverage of the Premier League clash between Tottenham and Everton at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Thank you very much for joining us. Goodbye!
