Tottenham vs Everton LIVE! Premier League match stream, latest ...
Tottenham are back in Premier League action later today when they host Everton at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Spurs are looking to end the week on a positive note, having all but thrown two points away at Leicester on Monday night, dominating much of the first-half before conceding an equaliser following Pedro Porro’s opener.
It was a frustrating start to Ange Postecoglou’s second season in charge of the club and failure to beat a Toffees side thrashed by Brighton on the opening weekend would only increase the pressure. Still, Postecoglou will hope that his side surely cannot be as wasteful this time around, as club-record signing Dominic Solanke looks for his first goal.
Spurs will be strong favourites for today’s game and anything other than three points has to be seen as a major disappointment. Follow all the action LIVE with Standard Sport’s dedicated match blog! Dan Kilpatrick will be providing expert analysis from the ground!
Tottenham vs Everton latest news
65 mins: Odobert and Kulusevski off for Richarlison and Sarr.
Next goal obviously feels crucial here. If Spurs get it, game over. But Everton have shown the odd flash, and Jesper Lindstrom nearly capitalised on a Odobert mistake to punish the hosts.
57 mins: Big save from Vicario to deny Lindstrom!
56 mins: Not a huge amount going on in the second-half.
Spurs have dropped their tempo but Everton not looking likely to score.
50 mins: Great defending from Mykolokeno to cut out Johnson’s cross for Son.
49 mins: Van de Ven looks to have shaken off any injury complaint he might have had.
HT, 2-0. Spurs well on their way to a first win of the season after an excellent first 45 minutes here. They have created more than enough to be out of sight and Postecoglou will expect his players to keep the pressure on after the interval.
Spurs in cruise control at the break.
Worrying scenes for Spurs, as Micky van de Ven hobbles to the side of the pitch after appearing to jar his knee in an awkward landing. The centre-half looked in considerable pain but is continuing for now. Radu Dragusin is ready and waiting to come on if needed.
