Everton Host Spurs in Vital Premier League Encounter at Goodison Park

English Premier League 19 January 2025 14:00 Goodison Park, Liverpool
Everton (Coach - Sean Dyche) V Tottenham Hotspur (Coach - Ange Postecoglou)


Match Preview
Everton welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Goodison Park in an important Premier League match. Both teams are aiming to improve their positions in the league table. Everton sit 16th with 17 points, while Spurs are 12th with 24 points.
Everton have struggled for consistency this season, winning only three of their 19 league games. Tottenham have had mixed results, recording seven victories and ten defeats in 20 matches. The home side will be eager to secure valuable points to steer clear of the relegation zone.

Team Analysis
Everton's home form has been a concern, with only two wins from nine matches at Goodison Park. They average 1.0 goals scored and 1.0 goals conceded per home game. Their possession averages 40%, and they make approximately 342.3 passes per game.
Tottenham's away performances have been unpredictable, with three wins, one draw, and five losses on the road. Spurs score an average of 1.9 goals and concede 0.9 goals per away match. They enjoy 58.4% possession on average, completing around 508.7 passes per game.
In their last six meetings at Goodison Park, all matches have ended in draws, with both teams scoring in five of them. This suggests a closely contested encounter could be on the cards.

Player Analysis
For Everton, Dominic Calvert-Lewin will be a key figure in attack. He looks to get behind defences, averaging 1.6 offsides per game. In midfield, Amadou Onana's availability is uncertain due to a knee concern. Defensively, James Tarkowski and Jarrad Branthwaite will aim to contain Spurs' forward line.
Tottenham will rely on Son Heung-min's creativity and goal threat. Richarlison, returning to Goodison Park, will be keen to make an impact against his former club. Dejan Kulusevski adds flair to the midfield. Spurs are missing several players through injury, including James Maddison and Micky van de Ven, which may affect their defensive stability.

Expected Lineup
Everton are expected to set up in a 4-4-1-1 formation. Jordan Pickford will start in goal. The back four will likely feature Patterson, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, and Mykolenko. In midfield, Harrison, Onana, Gueye, and McNeil will look to provide balance and support both defence and attack. Dominic Calvert-Lewin will lead the line, supported by a forward-playing midfielder.
Tottenham Hotspur may line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation. Guglielmo Vicario is anticipated to be in goal. The defence could consist of Porro, Romero, Davies, and Royal. In midfield, Hojbjerg and Sarr are set to hold the central roles. The attacking trio of Kulusevski, Son, and Johnson will support the lone striker Richarlison in search of goals.

Both Teams to Score at 1.52
In recent encounters between Everton and Tottenham Hotspur at Goodison Park, goals have been a common feature. The last six meetings at Everton's home ground have all ended in draws, with both teams finding the net in five of those matches. This pattern suggests a strong possibility of both sides scoring again.
Everton will be eager to convert their home advantage into goals. Despite a challenging season, they possess attacking talent capable of making an impact. Dominic Calvert-Lewin leads the line, supported by wingers Dwight McNeil and Jack Harrison. With creative outlets on the flanks, Everton have the potential to breach Tottenham's defence.
Tottenham, meanwhile, have been consistent in attack during away games, averaging 1.9 goals per match on the road. Son Heung-min and Richarlison offer significant threats going forward. Even with injuries to key players like James Maddison, Spurs maintain a strong offensive lineup. Their average of 14.85 shots per game indicates a willingness to create opportunities.
Defensively, both teams have shown vulnerabilities. Everton concede an average of 1.32 goals per game, while Tottenham concede 1.5. Spurs are missing key defenders such as Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero, which may further weaken their backline. With both defences prone to conceding, and attacking talents on both sides, it's reasonable to expect goals from each team.

Match to End in a Draw at 3.7
The history between Everton and Tottenham at Goodison Park points towards a stalemate. All of their last six fixtures at this venue have ended in draws, highlighting how evenly matched the teams are in this setting. With neither side managing a victory in these encounters, another draw seems a plausible outcome.
Everton's home form includes four draws in nine matches, reflecting their difficulty in securing wins but ability to hold opponents. Tottenham have drawn one of their nine away games but have struggled with consistency on the road, suffering five defeats. Their away performances have been unpredictable, which could level the playing field.
Both teams are keen to improve their league standings. Everton aim to distance themselves from the relegation zone, while Tottenham seek to climb the table despite injury setbacks. The tactical approach from both managers may be cautious, prioritising not losing over an aggressive pursuit of victory. This mindset could contribute to a closely contested match where a draw is a likely result.
Given the historical context and current form, a draw offers value. The evenly matched nature of the teams at Goodison Park suggests that neither side may have the edge to secure all three points.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin to Score Last at 7.0
Dominic Calvert-Lewin is set to lead Everton's attack against Tottenham. As the team's primary striker, he will be looking to make a significant impact. Calvert-Lewin has a tendency to be involved in crucial moments late in matches. His average of 1.56 offsides per game indicates his constant attempts to break through defences and get into goal-scoring positions.
With Tottenham missing key defenders, Calvert-Lewin may find opportunities, especially towards the end of the game as opposing players tire. Everton may focus on set-pieces and late surges to create chances, utilising Calvert-Lewin's physical presence and aerial ability. His prowess in the air could be decisive against a potentially unsettled Spurs defence.
Everton's need for points adds to the significance of this bet. They may push forward in search of a goal if the match is level or they are trailing. Calvert-Lewin is likely to be at the centre of these efforts. Considering his role and the circumstances, backing him to score the last goal offers good value.
