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 carries weight at both ends of the early table. The hosts are in trouble after three games, rooted near the bottom, while the visitors arrive unbeaten and looking to consolidate a promising start. For fans searching for Tottenham vs Everton prediction angles and Premier League betting tips, this fixture offers a fascinating contrast in form and momentum.

Tottenham sit 18th with just 1 point from their opening three matches, having failed to score and conceding five. Pressure is building quickly in north London, and this home game feels like an early test of character as they try to climb away from the relegation places. Everton, by contrast, are 8th with 5 points, unbeaten with one win and two draws and a positive goal difference. A result here would reinforce their credentials as a solid top-half side this season.

Recent head-to-head meetings have generally favoured Tottenham, especially in London, but current performance levels tell a different story. Stats suggest Everton arrive as the more balanced and confident side, while Tottenham’s attack has yet to ignite. That tension between historical dominance and present form sits at the heart of any serious Tottenham vs Everton preview and betting analysis.

Tottenham vs Everton Key Stats

• Tottenham are 18th in the Premier League with 1 point from 3 matches, scoring 0 and conceding 5.
• Everton are 8th with 5 points from 3 matches, scoring 5 and conceding 3.
• In the most recent meeting on 24 May 2026 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Tottenham beat Everton 1-0 in the Premier League.
• Tottenham’s 2026 league statistics show they have failed to score in all 3 matches so far, while keeping 1 clean sheet.
• Everton’s 2026 league statistics show 5 goals scored in 3 games (1.7 per match) and just 3 conceded (1.0 per match), with 1 clean sheet.

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 this league season), Everton 1 (all competitions this league season)

Across three league matches to date, Tottenham’s numbers are stark: 0 wins, 1 draw, 2 defeats, no goals scored and 5 conceded. Their goal difference of -5 is among the worst in the division, and the standings reflect a side struggling to create and convert chances. Even at home, they have lost their only game, 0-2, underlining the fragility currently on show at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Everton’s early campaign paints a far more stable picture. With 1 win and 2 draws from 3 games, they are unbeaten and boast a +2 goal difference. They have been effective at Goodison Park (4 goals scored, 2 conceded in 2 matches) and resilient away, drawing their only road game 1-1. While it is still early in the season, the table suggests Everton are trending towards the top half, whereas Tottenham are battling simply to get going.

Tottenham vs Everton Key Matchups

D. Udogie vs H. Hackney

With no top scorers listed yet, discipline and creativity take centre stage. For Tottenham, D. Udogie stands out from the card data. The defender has made 3 Premier League appearances this season, playing 92 minutes with 1 yellow card. His defensive contribution includes 1 tackle, 1 interception and 7 duels won from 14, alongside 50 completed passes at 88% accuracy and 1 key pass. Udogie’s aggressive style, evidenced by 3 fouls committed and 3 drawn, will be crucial in dealing with Everton’s midfield runners and overlapping wide threats.

For Everton, H. Hackney is a key creative presence. The midfielder has 3 appearances, 122 minutes, and already 1 assist. He has attempted 2 shots, created 3 key passes and completed 75 passes at an impressive 89% accuracy. Defensively, Hackney has chipped in with 3 tackles, 2 blocks and 2 interceptions, plus 14 duels contested and 6 won. His ability to link play and progress the ball through midfield could exploit Tottenham’s shaky defensive record, especially if Udogie and the Spurs back line are dragged out of position.

B. Johnson vs Tottenham back line

Another intriguing subplot is B. Johnson, now at Everton, facing a Tottenham defence that has conceded 5 in 3. Johnson has featured in all three league matches (100 minutes), with 1 shot, 2 key passes and 22 completed passes at 77% accuracy. While he has yet to register a goal or assist, his attacking instincts and versatility add another dimension to Everton’s forward play. He has also shown defensive work rate with 2 tackles, 1 block and 2 interceptions, though 4 fouls committed and 1 yellow card underline a combative edge.

Against a Spurs side that has failed to score and looks vulnerable late in games — a significant share of their goals conceded has come after the break — Johnson’s energy and movement could stretch the hosts. How Tottenham’s centre-backs and full-backs cope with his runs, alongside the creativity of Hackney and others, may go a long way to deciding whether Everton can turn promising positions into clear chances.

Head-to-Head: Last Meetings

Tottenham vs Everton Prediction

Stylistically, this match-up pits a goal-shy Tottenham against an Everton side that has combined solid defending with late scoring bursts. Tottenham’s league form line of DLL, mirrored by their statistical form of LLD, shows a team without a win, without a goal and with a defensive record of 1.7 goals conceded per game. Everton, with WDD and a statistical form of WDD, are averaging 1.7 goals scored and just 1 conceded per match, suggesting better balance at both ends.

Probability estimates give Tottenham only a 10% chance of victory, with the draw and Everton win each rated at 45%. That effectively frames the visitors as at least as likely as any other outcome, despite playing away from home. The comparison metrics are heavily tilted towards Everton too: in the last five, their attack index stands at 63 versus Tottenham’s 0, and their defense index at 63 versus 38. However, Tottenham’s strong historical home record against Everton and the psychological lift of returning to a familiar opponent could narrow the gap on the day.

Given Tottenham’s complete lack of goals so far and Everton’s solid defensive numbers, this could be tighter and lower scoring than some previous meetings. Everton look the more coherent side and should avoid defeat, but Tottenham’s need for a reaction and home advantage suggest a stalemate is highly plausible.

Predicted Score: Tottenham 1-1 Everton

Tottenham Recent Form

Tottenham’s recent Premier League form is poor. Their sequence of DLL reflects two defeats and one draw from three matches, with no wins and no goals scored. Across those games, they have conceded 5 goals — 2 at home and 3 away — and average 1.7 goals against per match. They have kept just 1 clean sheet and have failed to score in all three fixtures, underlining a serious attacking slump.

Everton Recent Form

Everton’s recent Premier League form is far more encouraging. Their WDD run shows an unbeaten start with one win and two draws. They have scored 5 goals in 3 matches (1.7 per game) and conceded only 3 (1.0 per game). Importantly, they have not failed to score in any league game so far and have already recorded 1 clean sheet, suggesting a side that is both dangerous in attack and reasonably secure at the back.

Tottenham Possible Starting Lineup

GK: B. Austin or M. Dúbravka; Defenders: Pedro Porro, M. Senesi, J. van Hecke, D. Udogie, M. van de Ven, B. Davies; Midfielders: R. Bentancur, J. Maddison, X. Simons, S. Tonali, M. Kudus, C. Gallagher, L. Bergvall, Mateus Fernandes; Forwards/Attackers: Richarlison, D. Solanke, Omar Marmoush, M. Mudryk, M. Tel, Sávio.

Tottenham have predominantly used a 4-2-3-1 shape in their three league outings, and the squad profile supports that structure: a solid bank of centre-backs, attacking full-backs like Pedro Porro and D. Udogie, and a deep pool of creative and attacking midfielders including J. Maddison, X. Simons and M. Kudus. Up front, options such as Richarlison and D. Solanke provide focal points. The key issue is turning this depth into end product; with three straight blanks, the coaching staff may tweak personnel or roles in the attacking midfield band to spark more movement and penetration.

Everton Possible Starting Lineup

GK: J. Pickford; Defenders: J. Tarkowski, J. Branthwaite, V. Mykolenko, M. Keane, Elijah Xavier Campbell; Midfielders: J. Garner, K. Dewsbury-Hall, C. Alcaraz, H. Hackney, C. Nørgaard, A. Maitland-Niles; Forwards/Attackers: J. Grealish, T. Barry, T. Dibling, B. Johnson, Tyrique George.

Everton have also lined up in a 4-2-3-1 across their three league games, and their squad composition fits that system well. A settled defensive core featuring J. Pickford, J. Tarkowski and J. Branthwaite underpins their improved goals-against numbers. In midfield, the blend of workers and creators — with H. Hackney already contributing an assist and strong passing metrics — offers both control and incision. Wide and attacking options like J. Grealish, T. Barry and B. Johnson give them flexibility to switch between direct attacks and more patient build-up, which should be useful against a Tottenham side that has struggled to keep clean sheets.

Betting Tips: Tottenham vs Everton

Here are three data-backed betting angles for this Premier League clash:

• Result Tip: Double Chance – Everton or Draw. With Tottenham given only a 10% win probability and Everton plus the draw each at 45%, the numbers heavily favour the visitors avoiding defeat. Everton are unbeaten (WDD) and more effective at both ends, while Tottenham have yet to win or score. Market odds for the match winner show Tottenham as favourites at around 1.95–2.05 (implied roughly 48.8–51.3%), with Everton out at 3.60–3.86 (≈25.9–27.8%) and the draw 3.40–3.71 (≈26.9–29.4%). That discrepancy between model probabilities and market pricing makes backing Everton not to lose via a double-chance angle attractive, especially when combined in multiples.
• Goals Tip: Under 3.5 Total Goals. Tottenham have failed to score in all 3 league games and average 0.0 goals for and 1.7 against. Everton average 1.7 scored and 1.0 conceded, and their matches have not been high-scoring overall. Historical meetings have produced big scorelines at times, but current form and a prediction advisory leaning towards under 3.5 goals point to a more controlled contest. Look for prices around the general under 3.5 line in the goals markets; the underlying stats justify a cautious goals stance.
• Value Tip: Everton to Score in Second Half. Everton’s goal distribution this season shows a significant share of their goals arriving late, particularly in the 76–90 minute window, while Tottenham concede across multiple periods, including after half-time. Creative influence from H. Hackney (1 assist, 3 key passes) and the running power of B. Johnson suggest Everton will remain a threat as the game wears on. With match-winner odds on Everton ranging from 3.60 to 3.86 (≈25.9–27.8% implied), derivative markets like “Everton to score in the second half” often offer better value relative to their attacking trend and Tottenham’s defensive frailties.
