Everton take on the visitors Tottenham in the round 23 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, February 3rd at Goodison Park (Liverpool).
Everton entered history in a unique way: they became the first team penalized for violating the current financial fair play rules, immediately stripped of 10 points. Yes, this verdict is being contested, but in 2024, football officials announced new penalties. This happened just when the Blues finally overcame a decline that lasted a full two years and almost led to relegation both in 2022 and last spring. The manager Sean Dyche, who took over at the last moment, managed to save them. Currently, his charges also put up a fight: in the League Cup, they lost a penalty shootout in the quarterfinals against Fulham, solely due to Leno in Fulham's goal. Recently, they faced Luton in the country's cup after going through a replay with Crystal Palace. There, they lost 1-2, unexpectedly exiting the competition. Moreover, in the Premier League, even with a -10 point deduction, the Liverpool representative managed to stay above the relegation zone. But after a 0-0 draw with Fulham, the Toffees surpassed the competitor.

Tottenham continues the challenging battle to regain positions lost last season. In 2022, the Spurs managed to outperform their main rivals, Arsenal, on the final stretch and pushed them out of the 4th place, securing a spot in the Champions League. However, Conte quickly became the anti-hero, dismantling almost everything, and his successors failed to lift the ambitious club into the European competition zone in the final table of the last season. So, the task for the newly appointed manager, Postecoglou, in the summer was to return to the leaders. All of this without Kane, who this time decided to sell. The Hotspurs surprised with an excellent start, then shocked with a sudden downturn in November. In winter, they were more stable and generally decent. They fought with Manchester City in the cup but eventually lost 0-1 due to the only goal in the 88th minute. Once the leaders in the Premier League, they now strive to at least break into the top four. In the last round, they won a shootout against Brentford 3-2.
The Toffees last won three years ago, in February 2021, in a cup match. Since then, there have been 3 wins for the Spurs and draws, but 2-1 became the third win for the Hotspurs in the last 4 head-to-head matches. The Blues must fight for points. However, the Hotspurs are simply stronger, so let's risk betting that Postecoglou's charges can achieve victory in Liverpool.
Prediction for the match: Tottenham to win.
