Overview
- The match is scheduled for Saturday, 12 September with a 17:30 BST kick‑off at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and will be shown in the UK on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League with international feeds including NBC/Peacock and fuboTV.
- Tottenham have failed to score in their first three league games and sit 17th with one point, leaving head coach Roberto De Zerbi searching for a front line solution after a 0-0 at Nottingham Forest.
- Spurs’ attacking options are hampered by injuries: Dejan Kulusevski, Xavi Simons and Wilson Odobert remain sidelined, James Maddison has suffered a shoulder setback and Mykhaylo Mudryk is expected to miss around a month with an ankle problem.
- Everton are unbeaten and sit eighth with five points after late equalisers, but they also face fitness limits with Christian Norgaard out until October and James Garner’s condition uncertain after he hobbled off against Manchester United.
- Pre‑match markets and pundits expect a tight, low‑scoring game given Spurs’ lack of chances, Everton’s compact, late‑scoring pattern, Tottenham’s recent strong home record against Everton, and the pressure created by roughly £160m of summer spending on new signings.
