Tottenham vs Everton Prediction: Key Stats and Betting Tips

Tottenham welcome Everton to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 12 September 2026 in a Premier League clash that already feels significant at both ends of the table. After three rounds of the Regular Season, Spurs are in early trouble, while Everton have made a quietly impressive start.

The hosts sit 18th with just 1 point from 3 matches, no goals scored and 5 conceded. Pressure is building quickly on a side expected to challenge much higher up the table. Everton, by contrast, arrive in London 8th with 5 points, unbeaten and with a positive goal difference after scoring 5 and conceding 3.

With Tottenham vs Everton predictions already attracting attention from bettors, this fixture looks like a classic contrast: a big club in crisis against an organised, confident visitor. The numbers suggest a tight, tactical contest rather than a free-scoring shootout.

Tottenham vs Everton Key Stats

  • Tottenham are 18th in the Premier League with 1 point from 3 games, having scored 0 and conceded 5.
  • Everton are 8th with 5 points from 3 games, scoring 5 and conceding 3, and remain unbeaten.
  • In their last five Premier League meetings, Tottenham at home have beaten Everton 1-0 (24 May 2026), 4-0 (24 August 2024), 2-0 (15 October 2022) and 5-0 (7 March 2022), with Everton failing to score in three of those four trips.
  • Current season statistics show Tottenham have failed to score in all 3 league matches, while Everton have found the net in all 3.

Tottenham vs Everton — Tale of the Tape

  • Position: 18 vs 8
  • Points: 1 vs 5
  • Goals For: 0 vs 5
  • Goals Against: 5 vs 3
  • Clean Sheets: Tottenham 1 (all competitions 2026 league stats), Everton 1

After three rounds, the table underlines how poorly Tottenham have started. They have taken just one point, are yet to score and carry a goal difference of -5. Their only clean sheet came away from home; in front of their own fans they have lost their sole game 0-2.

Everton’s early-season profile is far more balanced. With 1 win and 2 draws, they have 5 points and a +2 goal difference. They average 1.7 goals scored and 1.0 conceded per game across 3 fixtures, and have already kept one clean sheet. While it is early days, Everton look settled in a 4-2-3-1 structure and are proving hard to beat both home and away.

Tottenham vs Everton Key Matchups

D. Udogie vs H. Hackney

One of the most intriguing battles could come down Tottenham’s left and Everton’s midfield. D. Udogie has been heavily involved for Spurs, featuring in all 3 league games with 92 minutes played. His numbers show 50 passes at 88% accuracy, 1 key pass and a solid duels profile (14 duels, 7 won), underlining his importance in progressing the ball from the back. Defensively he has contributed 1 tackle and 1 interception, but has also picked up 1 yellow card, hinting at discipline risks if he is exposed one-on-one.

For Everton, H. Hackney has emerged as a creative hub. In 3 appearances (122 minutes), he already has 1 assist, 3 key passes and 75 completed passes at an excellent 89% accuracy. He has also chipped in defensively with 3 tackles, 2 blocks and 2 interceptions, plus 6 duels won from 14. If Hackney can find pockets behind Tottenham’s full-backs, he could drag Udogie into uncomfortable positions and force him into more recovery defending than attacking.

D. Udogie vs B. Johnson

A second angle on Udogie’s influence comes against Everton’s wide threat B. Johnson. Johnson has made 3 appearances (100 minutes) and, while he has yet to register a goal or assist, he offers direct running and defensive work from wide areas: 2 tackles, 1 block, 2 interceptions and 4 fouls committed show he is heavily involved in physical duels. He has 1 yellow card to his name already.

With Udogie also on a yellow for the season, the flank battle could be pivotal. Johnson’s willingness to press and challenge may pin Udogie back, limiting Tottenham’s ability to build down that side. Conversely, if Udogie can step past Johnson’s press, Spurs may finally generate some attacking width they have lacked so far.

Head-to-Head: Last Meetings

Recent history strongly favours Tottenham, especially in London, although Everton have shown they can trouble Spurs at Goodison Park. Here are the most recent clashes in the Premier League:

  • 24 May 2026: Tottenham 1-0 Everton (Premier League)
  • 26 October 2025: Everton 0-3 Tottenham (Premier League)
  • 19 January 2025: Everton 3-2 Tottenham (Premier League)
  • 24 August 2024: Tottenham 4-0 Everton (Premier League)
  • 3 February 2024: Everton 2-2 Tottenham (Premier League)

Tottenham vs Everton Prediction

Stats suggest a clash between a misfiring attack and a well-balanced, confident opponent. Tottenham’s league form is poor: 0 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats, no goals scored and 5 conceded. Their last-five form index is only 11, with an attack index of 0 and a defense index of 38. Everton’s last-five profile is far stronger: form index 56, attack 63, defense 63, with 5 goals scored and only 3 conceded.

Yet the betting markets still marginally favour Tottenham at home. Match winner odds for Spurs range from 1.95 to 2.05, implying roughly a 48.8% to 51.3% chance of a home win. Everton are priced between 3.60 and 3.86 (around 25.9% to 27.8% implied), with the draw around 3.40–3.71 (26.9%–29.4%). By contrast, the prediction model gives Tottenham just a 10% chance of victory, with Everton and the draw both at 45%.

Given Spurs’ complete lack of goals so far and Everton’s unbeaten start, a low-scoring, cagey game looks likely. Everton have scored heavily late in games this season, with a significant share of their goals coming in the final quarter of matches, while Tottenham have conceded across multiple time windows. That points towards a contest where Everton grow stronger as it wears on, but Tottenham’s home advantage and historical dominance at this stadium cannot be ignored.

Predicted Score: Tottenham 1-1 Everton

Tottenham Recent Form

Tottenham’s recent form in the Premier League is poor. Across 3 matches they have 0 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats, with 0 goals scored and 5 conceded. Their recent results pattern reflects a team struggling badly in attack while remaining vulnerable at the back, despite recording one clean sheet away from home.

Everton Recent Form

Everton’s recent form is encouraging. They are unbeaten in 3 league games with 1 win and 2 draws, scoring 5 and conceding 3. They have shown resilience, avoiding defeat both home and away, and their late-game scoring profile suggests strong fitness and mentality in closing stages.

Tottenham Possible Starting Lineup

GK: B. Austin or M. Dúbravka; Defenders: Pedro Porro, M. Senesi, J. van Hecke, D. Udogie or A. Robertson; Midfielders: R. Bentancur, S. Tonali, J. Maddison, X. Simons, M. Kudus; Forwards: Richarlison or D. Solanke, Omar Marmoush, M. Mudryk, Sávio, M. Tel as rotation options.

Tottenham’s squad list points towards a 4-2-3-1, a shape they have already used in all 3 league fixtures. The presence of creative midfielders like J. Maddison and X. Simons, plus versatile forwards such as Richarlison, Omar Marmoush and M. Mudryk, suggests they have the tools to fix their scoring problems. However, with defenders like D. Udogie already on a yellow card and a back line that has conceded 5 in 3, defensive balance and discipline will be critical.

Everton Possible Starting Lineup

GK: J. Pickford; Defenders: J. Tarkowski, J. Branthwaite, V. Mykolenko, M. Keane or Elijah Xavier Campbell; Midfielders: J. Garner, K. Dewsbury-Hall, C. Nørgaard, H. Hackney, J. Grealish; Forwards: B. Johnson, T. Barry, T. Dibling, Tyrique George as attacking options.

Everton also favour a 4-2-3-1, used in all 3 league games. With experienced defenders like J. Tarkowski and M. Keane, plus full-backs such as V. Mykolenko, they have a solid base. In midfield, K. Dewsbury-Hall, C. Nørgaard and H. Hackney offer a blend of work rate and passing, while J. Grealish adds ball-carrying and creativity. B. Johnson provides energy and pressing from wide areas. This structure has underpinned their unbeaten start and should translate well to an away game where control and compactness are key.

Betting Tips: Tottenham vs Everton

Exactly 3 distinct betting angles based on current stats, form and prices:

  • Result Tip: Everton or Draw (Double Chance). Tottenham have 0 wins from 3 and have yet to score, while Everton are unbeaten with 5 goals scored. The prediction model gives Spurs only a 10% win chance, with 45% each for draw and Everton. With the market still favouring Tottenham (home odds roughly 1.95–2.05 vs Everton 3.60–3.86), siding with Everton not to lose offers a solid risk-reward profile using double-chance markets priced accordingly off those match-winner odds.
  • Goals Tip: Under 3.5 total goals. Tottenham’s games have averaged 1.7 goals against and 0 scored; Everton’s have averaged 1.7 for and 1.0 against. The prediction advice already leans to Everton and under 3.5 goals, and H2H in London has often seen comfortable Spurs wins but not wild scorelines. With both sides set up in 4-2-3-1 and Spurs lacking cutting edge, a relatively low total goals outcome is statistically supported.
  • Value Tip: Draw at full time. The model rates the draw at 45%, while bookmaker prices around 3.40–3.71 imply roughly 26.9%–29.4% probability. That gap suggests potential value on the stalemate. Everton’s unbeaten start, Tottenham’s goal drought, and the likelihood of a tactical, risk-averse approach from the visitors all point towards a tight contest that could easily finish level.
