Tottenham Hotspur host Everton in a Premier League fixture at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday, with the meeting pitting a Spurs side yet to win this season against Toffees visitors still unbeaten.
Roberto De Zerbi’s team, 18th on a single point, posted their first result of the campaign last weekend, a goalless draw at Nottingham Forest, but are one of only three Premier League clubs yet to score this term and risk failing to net in their opening four league games for the first time in the club’s history.
Everton, eighth on five points, extended their own unbeaten start with a 2-2 draw at home to Manchester United, David Moyes’s side coming from behind via an Ainsley Maitland-Niles wonder-strike. It is the sides’ first meeting since Tottenham’s 1-0 win on the final day of last season, a result that secured Spurs’ top-flight survival. The match kicks off at 17:30 and will be shown live in the UK on Sky Sports Main Event.

Team news
Tottenham Hotspur
James Maddison remains a doubt with a shoulder injury, having returned to training but missed the matchday squad against Forest. Dejan Kulusevski, Wilson Odobert and Xavi Simons are all out with knee problems, while Mykhaylo Mudryk has suffered a new ankle injury on his return from over 600 days out and faces six to eight weeks on the sidelines.
Everton
James Garner is not considered fully fit after the injury that allowed Ainsley Maitland-Niles to step in and score against Manchester United, with Hayden Hackney in line to partner Harrison Armstrong centrally. Jack Grealish is set to return in place of Brennan Johnson. Christian Norgaard, out until October, remains Moyes’s only other fitness concern.
Form
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham have lost their last two Premier League matches and drawn the third without scoring, though they did convert 59% possession and 11 shots into no goals at Forest last time out. Only Aston Villa and Coventry City share their scoreless start to the season.
Everton
Everton remain unbeaten in the league this season after two wins and two draws, though away form has been a different story — they are winless in their last six league away games and needed a stoppage-time Tarkowski equaliser to salvage a point at Bournemouth.
Predicted lineups
Tottenham Hotspur predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Kinsky; Porro, Van Hecke, Van de Ven, Robertson; Tonali, Bentancur; Savio, Fernandes, Tel; Solanke
Everton predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Pickford; Maitland-Niles, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Armstrong, Hackney; George, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish; Barry
