In the upcoming Premier League match on Tuesday, April 4, 2023, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur will play against each other at 2:00 AM (24-hour format) (UTC+7) in Everton’s home stadium, Goodison Park. Both teams will face their 29th match in the season, and there is a massive gap between their current rankings and points. Everton is struggling to get out of the relegation zone and currently sits on the 18th position with 26 points, only three points behind the bottom team, Southampton. On the other hand, Tottenham Hotspur is in the top five of the Premier League with 49 points from 28 games played.
Newcastle United won against Manchester United with a score of 2-0 in the previous night’s game, which helped them equalize their points with The Red Devils and take over their third position. If Tottenham Hotspur wins over Everton in the away match tonight, they can replace both Newcastle and Manchester United directly and rank third in the Premier League table with 52 points. The loss of Manchester United against Newcastle United also opens up an opportunity for Tottenham Hotspur to take over the third position in the table, but both teams still have two postponed matches.
The game tonight can be intense and challenging for both teams. Everton and Tottenham Hotspur drew their previous matches, and a single victory can improve their position in the Premier League standings. In the last match in March, Everton had a 2-2 draw against Chelsea before the international break. Simms scored a goal at the end of the game to salvage Everton from losing. Tottenham Hotspur also drew against Southampton with a 3-3 score in their previous match. Although they scored first, the home team continually fought back and equalized.
Based on the last five matches, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur have an identical record, with one victory, two draws, and two losses each. In the meantime, Everton faced Chelsea, Brentford, Nottingham Forest, Arsenal, and Aston Villa. Tottenham Hotspur played against Southampton, Nottingham Forest, AC Milan, Wolves, and Sheffield United in the Premier League, Champions League, and FA Cup.
In their last five meetings, Tottenham Hotspur won twice, in 2022, when they faced Everton. The head-to-head record of both teams in their five previous meetings shows that Tottenham Hotspur has won two, Everton has won one, and two matches ended in a draw.
Sean Dyche is the manager of Everton, and their starting line-up likely consists of Pickford; Coleman, Keane, Tarkowski, Godfrey; Iwobi, Onana, Gueye, Doucoure, McNeil; and Gray. Cristian Stellini is the manager of Tottenham Hotspur, and their starting line-up may include Forster; Romero, Dier, Lenglet; Pedro Porro, Skipp, Hojbjerg, Perisic; Kulusevski, Kane, and Son.
