Tottenham vs Everton, Premier League preview: Prediction, start time, team news, TV, live stream, h2h, odds

Tottenham must bounce back from a demoralising defeat to Sheffield United against Everton on Monday if they are to have any hopes of European football next season.

A 3-1 defeat at Bramall Lane significantly dented their Champions League aspirations. And with Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal all winning over the weekend, Tottenham simply have to do the same.

Everton - who have shown a drastic upturn in form following Carlo Ancelotti's arrival, now seriously in the race for a Europa League spot - would move above Tottenham with a win.

Date, time and venue

Tottenham vs Everton is scheduled for an 8pm BST kick-off on Monday, July 6, 2020.

The match will be behind closed doors at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with no fans due to be present due to government guidelines regarding coronavirus.

How to watch

TV channel: Chelsea vs Watford will be shown live on Sky Sports' Premier League and Main Event channels, and is available via Now TV with a day pass for £9.99, or a three-month pass on offer for £25.

Live stream: Sky Sports subscribers can stream the match online via SkyGo and the SkyGo app, with a mobile month pass available for £5.99.

Team news

Dele Alli is the one fresh injury concern for Jose Mourinho. The England international is struggling with a minor hamstring injury and is unlikely to be risked.

Japhet Tanganga - who has been out with a stress fracture in his back - is due to start training next week but will not be fit to play.

Mourinho may opt for some tactical tweaks, with Toby Alderweireld potentially to pick up his first minutes since the restart following Davinson Sanchez's woeful midweek display.

Giovani Lo Celso also appeared to be struggling with a niggling groin injury and may be replaced by either Harry Winks or Tanguy Ndombele.

Cenk Tosun and Jean-Philippe Gbamin remain out for Everton with long-term injuries, while the game will likely come too soon for either Fabian Delph or Theo Walcott.

There is good news for Ancelotti, however, who welcomes back Djibril Sidibe who is once again fit after an ankle injury.

Prediction: Tottenham 1-1 Everton

Jose Mourinho will be desperate to get back on track with a win on Monday, and after his scathing comments following Thursday's loss, the players will certainly know that.

The three-time Premier League winner admitted he was left "disturbed" by his players' lack of desire and he will want to see a big, big change.

After defeating Norwich and Leicester, Everton have two wins on the bounce and enter the game with a spring in their step.

However, they haven't won a game away at Tottenham since 2008 and that will give Tottenham confidence. I'm going for a draw.

Head to head (h2h) history and results

Tottenham have won 67 of 178 matches between the two teams, without a loss in the last 14 games, a run that stretches back to December 2012.

Everton, on the other hand, have won 55 matches, with 56 draws.
