History of the Tottenham Hotspur v Everton fixture

Everton face a trip to Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Toffees will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 38 and win only 14 of the 72 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in October 2005, with Tottenham H. running out comfortable 2 - 0 winners in a Premiership match.

FootyMad's prediction ...

This promises to be an excellent test for the in-form Toffees, but one which I believe will end in stalemate. No-score draw
