Game Preview
A drab encounter between Everton and Tottenham burst into life around the hour mark when Everton’s Doucoure was sent off for pushing Harry Kane in the face. The England striker went on to convert a penalty after Michael Keane brought down Christian Romero in the area. Kane’s goal looked like it had sealed all three points for Spurs until Lucas Moura also received his marching orders in the dying minutes. With both teams down to 10 men, Everton pressed forward and Sean Dyche’s men were rewarded for their efforts when Michael Keane fired into the top corner from 25 yards out. The equalizer was no less than Everton deserved

Roberto de Zerbi’s Brighton side has lost just one of their last 11 matches and a goal in each half was enough to take all three points against a wasteful Cherries team. Evan Ferguson and Enciso getting on the scoresheet in the 0-2 victory. The win ensured Brighton ended the day in 6th place in the league, just four points behind Tottenham, with two games in hand.
Prediction
Tottenham may have a new manager but they are suffering from all the same woes as under Conte. Brighton is one of the most exciting teams to watch in the league and this game is set up to be a cracker. A loss hurts Spurs more than it does Brighton, but neither side will want to come away with zero points so we are backing a draw here.
