Everton vs Tottenham Hotspur analysis
Tottenham are winless in their last five away trips, losing four
Everton have won 1-0 in three of their last four home games
Abdoulaye Doucoure has scored two goals and two assists in his last three matches for Everton
The Spurs have failed to win at any of the bottom three teams this season
Has Tottenham crushed fourth place hopes?
It's only fitting that Tottenham are back in action at Goodison Park, given that their last visit to this stadium in November 2021 marked Antonio Conte's arrival to the club.
Monday night was their first game since his departure, with Conte essentially forcing his way out of the club following their 3-3 draw at Southampton just over two weeks ago.
Spurs enter the international break fourth, but they were just crushed by Conte in his post-match press conference after seeing his side take a 3-1 lead at St Mary's.

Given the scale of his attacks on his own players, the Italian must leave.
However, the fact they haven't replaced him is a concern for Spurs' top four ambitions.
Conte's assistant Cristian Stellini has stepped in as caretaker boss, but it looks like Spurs have written off this season.
With a team on the wane and few changes, this visit to Everton could be tough.
Toffees need to collect points
Everton are also in a tough spot, having spent the season battling relegation.
Not only are the Toffees hovering just above the relegation zone, but reports that their FFP infringement penalty could lead to a point deduction this season put them in grave danger.
Everton need a cushion above the bottom three just to be safe, but they are just one point clear of 18th after yesterday's Bournemouth win over Fulham.
With home form playing a key role in Everton's season so far, Sean Dyche's men need to get results in front of their home crowd.
The hosts have claimed 65% of their points this season at home, while Dyche has inspired his men to win three of their last four matches at home.
That includes a 1-0 win over league leaders Arsenal, so the hosts could develop as underdogs.
Doucoure is key for Everton
Tottenham have conceded as many Premier League goals after 28 games this season as they did all last season (40).

This was their worst defensive showing in 15 years in the league, so the Spurs look vulnerable in a game like this.
Everton have won 1-0 in three of their last four matches at home and they can pick up a win over a Spurs side who are winless in their last five away trips.
The visitors have failed to win in each of the bottom three this season, so the gulf between them is no guarantee for the visitors.
After losing 1-0 in three of their last four away fixtures, the visitors head to Merseyside in a blunt form.

Everton vs Tottenham prediction
Everton can take advantage of the visitors' problems so look to them to claim a 1-0 win on Monday night.
The hosts have a solid foundation that can keep Spurs on their toes, while Abdoulaye Doucoure's midfield can make all the difference.
He has been directly involved in Everton's last four Premier League goals, with two goals and two assists in his last three games.
The midfielder has not matched his goalscoring record at Watford since moving to Goodison, but he is in fine form and could threaten Spurs' leaky backline.
