Match preview
The 5:30pm Saturday kick-off takes us to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where Spurs welcome Everton for a clash that could have plenty of bite. Tottenham will want to make home advantage count, while Everton arrive knowing they have already shown they can upset the odds. With the floodlights on and two big Premier League names going head-to-head, this has all the ingredients for a lively one. Kick-off is 5:30pm on Saturday 12 September.
Recent form
It’s already been a bit of a rollercoaster for Spurs. A 3-0 defeat at Brentford was followed by a thumping 5-1 Carabao Cup win over Charlton, so Roberto De Zerbi’s side have shown they can score plenty — but consistency is the big question. Everton, meanwhile, opened their league campaign with a convincing 2-0 win over Crystal Palace and then followed it with a 4-0 cup victory at Preston.
Head-to-head
This fixture has history — lots of it. Tottenham and Everton have met more than 190 times, with Spurs holding the overall advantage. Recent meetings have swung Spurs’ way too: Tottenham won both league encounters last season, including a 1-0 victory at this stadium in May. But Everton have already proved they can beat Spurs in London, winning 1-0 here in 2020.
Why fans are watching
Spurs have the stage. Everton have the momentum. Who gets the last word? With the 5:30pm kick-off giving this one a proper Saturday-night feel, expect a lively atmosphere and two sets of supporters dreaming about a statement result. Can Tottenham bounce back and make their home advantage count, or will Everton arrive in north London and spoil the party? Forget predictions — who does the world WANT to win?
