Everton take on the visitors Tottenham in the round 29 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Monday, April 3rd at Goodison Park (Liverpool).
A year ago, Everton fans saw Lampard as a savior - replacing the hated Rafa Benitez, Frank managed to earn enough points with his new charges to avoid relegation to the Championship. However, in Liverpool they quickly realized that he was not really a Super manager. Essentially, in the middle of winter, the Blues found themselves in the same situation as a year ago - and reacted similarly, with a coaching reshuffle. Only this time, it seems they chose a more suitable specialist for the task, Sean Dyche. He was just good at fighting for survival in the EPL at Burnley. And in his new position, he started sensationally by beating Arsenal - of course, with his trademark score of 1-0. They also repeated this result in February with Leeds. And in the last 3 matches in March, with their customary minimal victory, they surprisingly produced entertaining draws of 2-2 with Nottingham Forest and Chelsea. This helped them climb to 15th place by April. However, the gap from the relegation zone is small, just 2 points, and more matches have been played than their pursuers.

Tottenham during the last season, while experiencing a decline, called upon Antonio Conte. He was able to achieve success even in such conditions, snatching 4th place thanks to a strong finish (and a terrible performance by their enemy and competitor, Arsenal). But everyone knows about Conte's volcanic character, he did not work for long anywhere, including at Chelsea. It seems that he is not in a hopeless situation now in the Premier League – it should be remembered that he left the London club in the same 4th place, and it is unlikely that anyone from the top three leaders could have been surpassed. But the weak exit from the Champions League also played a role – after barely getting out of an easy group, the English lost not to a top-level Milan (0-1 at San Siro, 0-0 at home while in minority). In addition, the Hotspurs managed to fly out of the cup after losing to Sheffield United in the cup – this dooms the capital team to another season without trophies. Finally, there were also enough mistakes in the EPL – and 3-3 with Southampton became the finishing point. Conte simply decided to provoke his dismissal himself, giving a scandalous interview and practically not leaving even cautious Levy any chances. His successor has not been appointed yet – Stellini is working. Moreover, Paratici was also forced to distance himself from the affairs due to the investigation around Juventus, taking a vacation in London.
Everton, despite all its problems, did not lose to Tottenham four times in a row. But under Conte, in the past calendar year, Kane and company won both matches. Spurs remain the favorite in this situation. But it will not be so easy for them to justify this status. It is recommended to use a bet on under 2.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
