Tottenham Hotspur

The West Ham United defeat on Sunday eased some of the pressure on Tottenham Hotspur knowing they need a single point from two remaining fixtures, but the fans would have been hoping that could have been earned at the home of rivals Chelsea. Instead, Tottenham Hotspur failed to take advantage of some of the chances created and a Chelsea team missing key players and they go into the final weekend of the season still needing at least a point.

Outside of an improbable 12-0 win for West Ham United, a point will be enough for Spurs on Sunday, but they have not found it easy to perform in their home in North London. In fact the main reason Tottenham Hotspur are 17th in the Premier League table and 2 points clear of the relegation zone is the 2-6-10 record at home, and they have the joint fewest points collected in front of the supporters in the top flight along with relegated Burnley.

Tottenham Hotspur have played 6 Premier League games under Roberto De Zerbi and they have won 2 and lost 2 in that run after the 2-1 loss at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday. The side have not won any of the last 10 home Premier League games, but Tottenham Hotspur have drawn both here under Roberto De Zerbi against Brighton and Leeds United.

Dominic Solanke is hoping to play some part in this fixture, but a number of key players continue to miss time and it is up to those who travelled to Chelsea to find the energy and intensity to earn a positive result.

Everton

They went into the March international break with some serious momentum and David Moyes will have been confident he could help his Everton squad pick up enough points to earn a return to European Football. Late goals have hindered those efforts over the last several weeks and Everton's 1-3 home defeat to Sunderland last weekend has effectively dashed those ambitions for the manager and the club.

That defeat has left Everton in 12th place in the Premier League table and Chelsea's win over Tottenham Hotspur means they cannot finish in the top eight. The Toffees have a 7-5-6 away record and the summer will be working out how they can improve the overall form at Hill Dickinson Stadium, which will be important if they do want to challenge for European spots next season.

Everton had won 3 of 4 Premier League games going into the March international break, but they have picked up just 3 points from 18 available on the return to action. The side have drawn 2 and lost 2 of the last 4 away Premier League fixtures played.

Idrissa Gueye is hoping to be available for selection for the away team.

Head to Head

Earlier this season, Tottenham Hotspur became the first visiting team to win at Hill Dickinson Stadium in a 0-3 victory in October.

Tottenham Hotspur have beaten Everton 4 times in a row at home.

Prediction

You just know the layers are not going to be giving anything away this weekend and Tottenham Hotspur are odds on to win a game they cannot afford to lose.

A draw should be enough to avoid relegation, but this is a game that will have all of the supporters keeping one ear on what is happening at the London Stadium and that could have a big impact on the way this fixture shapes up.

As long as West Ham United are not winning, Tottenham Hotspur's supporters should be able to stick with their team.

Of course the atmosphere would change dramatically if The Hammers score first against Leeds United and/or Everton score first here.

Roberto De Zerbi will not have been happy with the goals given away by his Tottenham Hotspur team on Tuesday, but they created enough chances to avoid a defeat at Stamford Bridge. The encouraging underlying numbers suggest Tottenham Hotspur have enough to find a positive result, but tension and pressure can do funny things and it is hugely important for Spurs to start with intensity.

They have drawn both home games under the Italian manager and Tottenham Hotspur have had a season-long struggle in their home Stadium. However, they have led in both games here and scoring first could just ease all of the pressure that Tottenham Hotspur's team have faced for weeks.

It feels like Spurs could be facing Everton at a good time.

David Moyes urged his team to push for European Football, but that has perhaps been a factor in the 6 game run without a victory during which time Everton have been beaten 3 times. The 1-3 home defeat to Sunderland last Sunday was particularly painful, while Everton conceded late in a 2-1 loss at West Ham United at the end of April.

Everton can get forward and pose problems, but they have been struggling defensively and that has to be something Tottenham Hotspur can expose.

In the last 5 games under Roberto De Zerbi, Spurs have been better at both ends of the pitch compared with the opponent and that has to count for something.

A strong home record against Everton will help the players feel some confidence and the feeling is that Tottenham Hotspur may finally win another home Premier League game to avoid a hugely damaging drop into the Championship.
