The Matchday 9 Premier League clash between Everton and Tottenham will take place on October 26 at Hill Dickinson Stadium in Liverpool. Everton vs. Tottenham: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Everton
The Liverpool side played their last league match away against Manchester City and, as expected, lost 0-2. This was their third defeat in the current Premier League campaign, dropping David Moyes' team to 12th place. It's also worth noting that in their last five Premier League matches, the team has managed only one victory – against Crystal Palace with a score of 2-1 (2 draws and 2 losses).
- In their last 12 Premier League encounters, Everton has avoided defeat 9 times – 6 wins and 3 draws.
- No more than two goals have been scored in 7 of the club's last 10 league matches.
- At home, the Liverpool side has a 6-match unbeaten streak in the Premier League (3 wins and 3 draws).
Predicted lineup for Everton (4-2-3-1)
Jordan Pickford – Michael Keane, James Tarkowski, Jake O'Brien, Vitalii Mykolenko – Idrissa Gueye, James Garner – Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Carlos Alcaraz, Iliman Ndiaye – Beto Gomes.
Defender Nathan Patterson is out due to injury, while fellow defender Jarred Branthwaite is questionable.
Tottenham
The London side hosted Aston Villa in the last round and lost 1-2 to the Birmingham team. They have already suffered two defeats in the current championship, both at home. Additionally, in their last four Premier League matches, the club managed to beat only the league newcomer – Leeds (2-1), with 2 draws and 1 loss in the other games. Thomas Frank's team has dropped to 6th place in the standings.
- Exactly two or three goals have been scored in 6 of Tottenham's last 8 Premier League matches.
- Away from home, Tottenham is unbeaten in 4 consecutive Premier League matches (3 wins and 1 draw).
- The club has failed to win the first half in 6 consecutive league matches – 4 draws and 2 losses.

Guglielmo Vicario – Kevin Danso, Djed Spence, Micky van de Ven, Pedro Porro – Joao Palhinha, Rodrigo Bentancur – Mohammed Kudus, Wilson Odobert, Xavi Simons – Mathys Tel.

Everton vs. Tottenham: Match Prediction
I suggest that the hosts have a good chance of winning or at least drawing in the upcoming match. Tottenham is gradually losing ground, dropping further down the table. Essentially, this season, the Londoners have only excelled in one match – against Manchester City (2-0), while the other three wins were against underdogs – Burnley, West Ham, and Leeds. The schedule has become tougher, and Tottenham is starting to resemble their form from last season.
The Liverpool side is strong at home and poses a threat even to Premier League top teams. In their last 13 home Premier League matches, they have suffered only 1 defeat (against Manchester City), with 5 wins and 7 draws. Additionally, Everton is unbeaten against Tottenham at home in six consecutive league matches (1 win and 5 draws).
My prediction – Everton with a handicap (0)
