Everton vs Tottenham Prediction & Betting Tips (3 February)

Sanctioned with a withdrawal of 10 points due to non-compliance with the rules of financial fair play, Everton finds itself in great danger this season. Indeed, the Liverpool-based club today occupies 18th place in the Premier League with 1 game more and 1 unit behind the first non-relegation team. After a string of good results, the Toffees have been slowing down since the end of December. Thus, they have not won any of their last 5 league matches, 2 draws and 3 defeats. Beaten at home by Luton in the FA Cup last weekend 1-2, Everton then took a point at Fulham this week 0-0.

Back at a good level this season, Tottenham are currently 4th in the Premier League and have the same number of points as the 5th, who will not qualify for the next Champions League. Confidently, Spurs have only lost on the Brighton pitch 4-2 in the last 7 days, for 5 victories and 1 draw. After taking a point at Manchester United 2-2, they got the better of Brentford this week 3-2. Last weekend, Tottenham lost at home to the ogre Manchester City in the FA Cup 0-1.

The Everton coach still cannot count on the influential Doucouré (6 goals in PL), the Portuguese midfielder loaned to Lille last year Andre Gomes and the long-term absentee Dele Alli, insufficiently recovered from their problems physical. In addition, the experienced right-back Coleman is announced as doubtful, as are the midfielder Onana and the winger Danjuma. The good news comes from the return of Senegalese international Gana Gueye, who was eliminated in the round of 16 of the CAN. On the attacking front, the not very prolific Calvert-Lewin (3 goals in PL) could once again take his place.

The Toffees have failed to score in the last 3 days. Returning from his loan to Southampton this winter, defender Holgate was immediately loaned to Sheffield United.
