Everton v Tottenham

Everton vs Tottenham Preview

They say you should never go back to a club but Everton manager David Moyes has returned to The Toffees for a second stint at Goodison Park and it's the second time across two clubs as well as the Scot had also returned to former club West Ham previously, but this time he has his work cut out as his new side once again find themselves languishing in the lower reaches of the table.

Tottenham may also be replacing personnel in the Spurs hot-seat if Ange Postecoglou's side suffer another defeat in the Premier League, having been handed a derby day 2-1 defeat away from home at north London rivals Arsenal in midweek.

Everton occupy 16th place in the Premier League table where the merseyside hosts possess a slender one-point cushion above the relegation zone heading into this Sunday afternoon's clash against an out-of-sorts Tottenham outfit.

Sunday's hosts have now failed to win any of their last six matches overall in the English top flight having been involved in three draws on the trot which have been followed by three defeats on the trot in quick succession.

Recent losses at the hands of Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth and Aston Villa will have done little to boost Everton's fading morale while the bigger picture shows The Toffees have managed to pick up just one win from their last 12 matches overall - that being a resounding 4-0 home win against fellow strugglers Wolves.

Tottenham found themselves 1-0 up in their midweek north London derby away at rivals Arsenal but it turned out to be the same old story for Tottenham who promise much but deliver very little, and that loss became a fourth defeat in five games for the visitors.

Recent damaging defeats to Liverpool, Nottingham Forest, Newcastle United and Arsenal respectively have left Tottenham sitting in a miserable and highly disappointing 13th place in the Premier League table and one fancies another defeat for Spurs here on Sunday afternoon could be the final straw for the Tottenham board.

The bigger picture shows Tottenham have also managed just the single win in recent times as the north London visitors' only highlight came in the form of a crushing 5-0 victory away from home at down-and-out Southampton but they have also been dealt no fewer than six defeats within their last nine games overall.

Having also managed to capture only four wins from their previous 16 outings on the road along with slipping to 10 defeats in the process, but this still remains more promising form than that of their hosts, Everton!
