TEAM NEWS TIME!
FRIENDS GATHERED
No one has faced each other more in the first weekend of a high-level English season than Tottenham and Everton.
This will be the eleventh time the duo will begin an opposite crusade with each other. Last time in early 2016-17 when they tied 1-1 at Goodison Park.
GOOD AFTERNOON AT TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR STADIUM
Welcome to our Spurs policy opposed to Everton this inaugural weekend of the new Premier League season.
And for those two well-known old clubs, expectations are as high as ever.
It is possible that the standards would have slipped in north London in recent years, but Tottenham can still boast of a more sensible coach, a stadium and england captain at the forefront of his attack.
New players Matt Doherty and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg have been signed from other Premier League clubs as Jose Mourinho’s men prepare for a place in the Champions League. Will it be all or nothing for the Portuguese technician this time?
The Toffees are a team with European football aspirations at the start of the campaign.
In the shadow of its champion neighbors, recent years have been barren for the blue part of Merseyside. However, there is now renewed hope.
While Carlo Ancelotti’s arrival in December has caught his eye, james Rodriguez’s signing has also caught the eye.
The true forgotten Madridista will be eager to make up for lost time by appearing in the Premier League, which is why he was once one of the game’s top contenders.
Other signings such as Brazilian Allan and Watford’s Abdoluaye Doucoure have also thrilled Everton fans, and the fans may also have a new stadium to feel at home one day.
Today he scores one for both clubs to enter the game and the kick-off is at 4. 30.
