EVERTON

Everton are currently 18^th on the log and are unbeaten in their last 3 starts.  They drew 2-2 with Chelsea on the road on the weekend and their last home game was a 1-0 victory over Brentford.  Everton have only won 5 of 14 home matches this season but 3 of those victories have come in their last 4 home starts.

Only 5 of Everton 14 home games have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers and their last 4 home matches have all failed to reach the 3 goal mark.

TOTTENHAM

Tottenham are 5^th on the log with just 1 loss in their last 5 starts.  They drew 3-3 away to Southampton on the weekend and they have only won 1 of their last 5 away matches and they have only taken 1 point from the last 9 they have played for on the road.  Having a look at Tottenham’s goal stats away from home, 8 of the 14 Tottenham away games have made you a profit had you backed over 2.5 goals and their away games averaged 3.4 goals each, amongst the highest in the Division.

HEAD TO HEAD

Tottenham beat Everton 2-0 at home earlier this season and last season this fixture finished goalless.  Everton haven’t scored against Tottenham in their last 3 Premier League matches.

VERDICT

If pushed to pick a winner in this game I would go for Tottenham, but I am rather going to turn my attention to the goals market where I fancy over 2.5 goals at 21/20.  Yes, Everton’s home games have been low scoring of late, but Tottenham have been playing in some high scoring fixtures and I fancy we will get goals at both ends.  With that in mind another option for punters is both teams to score, yes, at 17/20.

Other markets which could interest punters is the First Goal Scorer where Harry Kane is currently trading at 7/2 and a favourite market of mine, where I am struggling to find a confident pick, is the Correct Score where the 2-1 victory for Tottenham is trading at 17/2.

Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 21/20
