Everton welcome the visitors Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premiere League – Round 18. The match will be held on Sunday, December 23rd, at the Goodison Park (Liverpool).
Everton have picked up only 2 points in the last 4 rounds, failing to win at home even Newcastle and Watford; at this, they lost 7 goals. Everton’s calendar was by no means easy, and now they have to face the kicking into gear Tottenham Hotspur. The ‘Toffies’ did not manage to beat the leaders so far. In their last 5 clashes with top-six teams, they could get only 1 point, that being a hard-earned draw against Chelsea.

The gradual comeback to the top-flying tiers enabled Tottenham to advance to the Champions League knockouts and seal their position in the English Premiere League. In 10 latest matches, Pochettino’s men have lost some points twice only – in their outings against Barcelona and Arsenal. In the EPL run, the ‘Spurs’ have won 6 of 7 last rounds, losing in the London derby only. That said, Tottenham are one of a few European clubs that managed to score in all fixtures of this campaign. Their defense is also safe – they missed only 2 goals in 4 previous clashes.
Everton have registered their last win over Tottenham yet in December 2012; afterwards, they’ve conceded to the ‘Spurs’ in 5 matches, and 6 games ended level. In the last season, the ‘Toffies’ took 2 hammerings at the hands of the Londoners with the total scoreline 0:7. Considering Everton’s latest record, they are very unlikely to halt such a long streak. In the clashes with EPL toppers, the hosts have to defend most of the time, therefore, they eventually slipup in defense. The visiting side are the only English league club having scored in all fixtures, so, they will probably find the keys to unlock the hosts’ goal. The London team can play ‘to nil’ though. Everton have shipped 24 goals, but in 5 clashes with the top-six teams, they made only 2 goals. Finally, the hosts registered 6 EPL wins, while the visitors won in 13 of 17 league rounds. Thus, the bet on Tottenham’s win with 0.0 handicap seems logical.
Prediction for the match: Tottenham Hotspur to win with 0.0 handicap.
