Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton Preview, Prediction, Lineups and Team News | Premier League
Preview
- Date – Saturday, August 24, 2024
- Kick-off Time – 03:00 pm GMT
- Venue – Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Tottenham Hotspur will welcome Everton in their first home game of the 2024/25 Premier League season at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The North London giants are expected to secure a comfortable victory this week against a side who have lost all their last seven head-to-head meetings.
Hosts Tottenham finished fifth in the Premier League, just two points shy of Champions League qualification, but had a pretty good record on their home soil winning 13 of their 19 games. Spurs had an exciting summer window where they brought in attackers like Dominic Solanke, Lucas Bergvall and Wilson Odobert, who fit Ange Postecoglou’s brand of football.
Meanwhile, Everton witnessed another disaster campaign after finishing 15th in the Premier League and were docked eight points for breaching PSR. It has been quite a journey for the Merseyside club, who experienced an eventful 2023-24 campaign that saw them narrowly avoid relegation.
Team News
Tottenham Hotspur Team News
Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Yves Bissouma will return from his suspension in this tie. Rodrigo Bentancur left the pitch on a stretcher in their opening game against Leicester after he was left unconscious and remains a huge doubt in this tie. Summer signing Dominic Solanke will keep his spot after an encouraging debut. Pedro Porro also picked up a knock but should be available this weekend.
Everton Team News
On the other hand, Everton will remain without the likes of Youssouf Chermiti, Jarrad Branthwaite and Nathan Patterson. Ashley Young remains suspended after his red card against Brighton in the first game of the campaign. Seamus Coleman and James Garner are also doubtful with calf injuries and this game is likely to come too soon for the duo.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton Prediction
The hosts are preparing for their second season under Ange Postecoglou and are unbeaten in their last seven matches against Everton. They are coming off a 1-1 draw with new entrants Leicester City in their last game. They will enter this game with full confidence after making some savvy purchases in the summer window. Although they fell short of qualifying for the Champions League last term, Postecoglou always claimed a top-four finish was never a priority in his first season as a manager.
Meanwhile, Everton who finished 15th in the Premier League last season managed only five wins on the road. The visitors are coming off a 3-0 defeat at home to Brighton in their opening game of the campaign. A game away at Spurs has always been tumultuous for the Merseyside club and they aren’t favoured to grind out a win.
Predicted Score: Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 Everton
