Presentation of the Everton vs. Tottenham Hotspur match… news of the two teams, tickets and expectations

The last time an Everton v Tottenham Hotspur match was on the cards was when Everton traveled to north London in August 2024, at the start of the 2024/25 Premier League season.

Tottenham won decisively Four goals to none Many will point to their manager Ange Postecoglou saying at the start of the season that he would win the North London club a trophy at the end of the season because he “usually wins things” in his second year.

Now, this comment seems not only inadvisable, but ridiculous as Spurs don’t look close to winning any of the competitions they are still involved in. What they did – and continue to do – is entertain us with matches that will not easily be forgotten in a hurry.

One such match is their 4-0 thrashing of defending champions Manchester City at the Etihad in November 2024, which came as a surprise to many, including their own fans. In the same vein, they are one of the few wins for newly promoted Ipswich Town in the 2024/25 season as they lost 2-1 at home to Tractor Boys before thrashing Manchester City.

On the other hand, Everton are struggling to stay in the Premier League because they have something special for their fans from 2025/26. They have been dancing with danger over the past two seasons and everyone thought they would not escape relegation in the 2024/25 season. By the beginning of October, these predictions looked like they would come true but now, no one can guess what will happen to one of the Premier League’s most famous clubs.

This is also very entertaining, which means the upcoming clash between these two clubs is something to look forward to.

Both teams were not on par at the start of the season but it seems that way now. While Everton are more likely to draw, Tottenham are more likely to lose.

On the road, the London club have a poor record playing into the hands of Everton. Everton have secured all their positives at Goodison Park this season and this could be another opportunity for them to secure more as they work towards their continued involvement in the Premier League for next season.

News of the two teams

The January transfer window is still ongoing and both teams are busy shopping for reinforcements for the second half of the 2024/25 season.

These reinforcements can watch from the sidelines to see what’s on the minds of their new teammates, meaning Sean Deitch and Angie Postecoglou will be working with the team they entered the season with.

Fortunately for both managers, there are no serious injury issues to deal with. The host, Everton, have been carefully tending Youssef Shermati, Armando Broga and Seamus Coleman back to health. All three should be fit for the Tottenham match, as they have been building match fitness with Everton’s Under-21s.
On the other hand, the visitors will have more to worry about as a large part of their squad is still working on fitness issues. Richarlison, goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario and defender Cristian Romero – half of Tottenham’s starting centre-back duo – were all sidelined to the touchlines in November 2024 due to various injuries – Vicario underwent surgery on an ankle injury – but are back and training with the team.

In October, just a month before those three were injured, Micky van de Ven – the other half of Spurs’ starting centre-back duo – and Wilson Odubert both suffered hamstring injuries.

They are all back and training with the squad, but Postecoglou may not be 100 percent for the trip to Everton. However, we expect most of the names on this list – especially Van de Ven and Romero – to start against Everton.

Formations

Here are our predictions for the starting lineup for both teams.

Everton: Pickford; Garner, Branthwaite, Keane, Young; Dokuri, Mangala; Harrison, McNeil, Ndiaye; Calvert-Lewin.

Tottenham Hotspur: Vicario; Udoji, Van de Ven, Romero, Boro; Madison, Bissouma, Kulusevski; Son, Solanke, Johnson.

Expectations

Everton vs Tottenham Hotspur will be an exciting match for all types of fans because of one fact: Tottenham Hotspur is a very volatile and entertaining team.

The North London team is the type of team that performs brilliantly against the big teams and then collapses against the smaller or average teams.

Even though Everton are the king of the Premier League, they are not winners in the true sense of the word and should be relegated to the ‘smaller or average team’ category.

These are the types of matches that Spurs tend to play entertaining games against and might lose, so many fans will want to watch this one because of the excitement factor. We expect a close match that will end in a draw.
