Spurs to stub out Everton’s top-four chances

In-form Toffees travel to the lane

Sky Sports Super Sunday kicks-off with a fascinating match-up at White Hart Lane as Spurs, who went into the weekend in second-place, host an Everton side with ambitions of finishing in the top-four themselves.

Form shows Everton have nothing to fear

The Toffees make the trip to London on the back of a seriously impressive run of form, unbeaten in their last nine league starts, going down to Liverpool in mid-December by a 1-0 score. Since that reverse Ronald Koeman’s side have hacked their way through the rankings, winning six and drawing three. That purple patch includes the scalps of Leicester, Southampton, Man City, Crystal Palace and Sunderland, all without conceding a goal.

Everton to keep that going with another massive win to nil, a result that would move them to within six points of their hosts, and ever-closer to their dream of finishing in the top-four, has been chalked up by Coral’s traders at 9/1. That’ll surely be music to the ears of the travelling support.

Everton to turn the odds on their head and leave White Hart Lane with all three points can be backed at a value 9/2 with us, while a draw, which would keep their outside chances of Champions League football alive, is yours at 3/1.

Spurs look special this season

For as impressive as Everton’s form has been this season, Spurs have gone way beyond that. The Lilywhites have won over even their harshest of critics, and go into the round with a CV showing 15 wins, eight draws and three defeats.

They were beaten by Liverpool on their penultimate start, thanks to a two-minute wonder show from Sadio Mane up at Anfield, but have won seven of their last 10, and warmed up for this with a stunning 4-0 win over Stoke at this venue.
