Premier League Quick Preview: Tottenham Vs Everton
Tottenham only won 10 league games last season, but two of them came at the expense of David Moyes' Everton.
The Toffees go into this Saturday tea-time game in a much healthier position in the table sitting eighth - four points better off than Roberto De Zerbi's side, who have struggled at the start of the season.
Spurs have yet to score a goal in their three contests and the home fans will demand an improvement after seeing their side draw 0-0 at Bournemouth last weekend.
With home advantage, Tottenham are the favourites on betting apps, but it's on the north side of Evens.
Time For Marmoush To Deliver
Tottenham have the services of Omar Marmoush for the season on a loan deal with Manchester City, and while he didn't cost any money, he was brought in end his side's goal drought.
Spurs have gone 270 minutes without a goal to start the season, but he has fired off five shots.
Marmoush only played for three minutes against the Toffees for City last season, so this is a great opportunity to find his feet in a Spurs jersey.

Jack The Lad For Moyes
For the second season running, Everton boss David Moyes will look to Jack Grealish to be the spark for his side.
A second season-long loan was agreed before the end of the transfer window and the Toffees will hope Grealish can rediscover the form that made Manchester City sign him for around £100m.
Grealish was unable to score or provide an assist when these two sides met at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, but he did score in a 3-3 draw against Spurs in December 2023.

Everton are in a good place right now and they won't lack any confidence going to north London.
