Tottenham vs Everton Betting Tips & Preview

Tottenham Hotspur to win

Tottenham are the pick to see off Everton in this fixture, and while it's not a slam-dunk case, the balance of recent history and head-to-head form leans their way. Spurs have had a stop-start few weeks, but they've won two of their last five outings and hold a clear edge over Everton across recent meetings between these two clubs. The model gives this outcome a 38.2% chance of landing, which isn't overwhelming in isolation, but in a three-way market it's still the single most likely result on offer. At odds of 2.00 with site-listed bookmakers, this is backed simply because it looks the most probable outcome, not because of any perceived gap between that price and the model's number.

Recent Form

Tottenham's form has been mixed. They beat Everton back in May, then lost away to Brentford, bounced back with a win over Charlton Athletic at home, before Newcastle United got the better of them and they were held to a draw away at Nottingham Forest most recently. That's two wins, two losses and a draw across their last five, a run that shows both quality and vulnerability depending on the day.

Everton's recent form tells a similar story of inconsistency, though with fewer defeats. They lost to Tottenham in May, then won back-to-back matches against Crystal Palace and Preston North End, before drawing away at AFC Bournemouth and again at home to Manchester United in their most recent game. Two wins and two draws from their last five suggests a side that's hard to beat right now, even if they're not consistently winning games either.

Head-to-Head

The head-to-head picture over the last five meetings clearly favours Tottenham, who have won three, drawn one and lost just once to Everton in that span. That includes the most recent meeting in May, which Tottenham won, as well as a win at Goodison Park back in October 2025. Everton's only win in this sample came in January 2025, with the sides sharing the points in a draw back in February 2024. That record gives Tottenham a psychological edge heading into this one, even allowing for the fact that recent league form has been patchy for both sides.

Team News

Tottenham have some notable absentees to contend with. James Maddison is out with a shoulder injury since late August, while both Wilson Odobert and Xavi Simons remain sidelined with cruciate ligament tears, injuries picked up earlier in the year that have kept them out for an extended period. That's a meaningful dent to Tottenham's attacking and creative options.

Everton's injury list is shorter by comparison, with Christian Nørgaard the only player listed as sidelined, out with a groin injury since August 20. On paper, Everton go into this match with the healthier squad, which could offset some of Tottenham's edge in recent head-to-head results.
