Everton vs Tottenham Hotspur Prediction
Everton were missing some important players against Wolverhampton Wanderers, including stars Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Abdoulaye Doucoure. There was heavy protest in the summer against the appointment of Rafa Benitez as manager due to his Liverpool connections. The Spaniard is a wily coach, but he will now be feeling the pressure after a poor run of form.
Tottenham Hotspur, on the other hand, finally pulled the cord on the Nuno Espirito Santo experiment. Antonio Conte has arrived as manager, and the Italian is regarded by many as one of the best managers in world football. Conte's CV speaks for itself, and Tottenham Hotspur now have a world-class boss at the helm who can help them recover their mojo.
Conte's Tottenham Hotspur should get the better of Everton.
