Preview: Tottenham Hotspur vs. Everton

Tottenham vs. Everton

This fixture should have been played on the opening day of the Premier League season. However, the London riots saw the match postponed on safety grounds.

Everton boss David Moyes must now be ruing that decision, as his Toffees squad travel to White Hart Lane without a number of key individuals.

The latest of these is Seamus Coleman, who has joined Tim Cahill, Phil Jagielka and Jack Rodwell on the treatment on table.

Hosts Spurs will be without skipper Ledley King, but Michael Dawson is fit again after an Achilles injury to take his place.

Centre-midfielder Scott Parker remains doubtful for the match with a knee injury.

Current form:

Tottenham: WDWDWW Everton: DWDWLW

Possible lineups:

Tottenham: Friedel; Walker, Dawson, Kaboul, Assou-Ekotto; Bale, Modric, Livermore, Lennon; Van der Vaart; Adebayor

Everton: Howard; Hibbert, Heitinga, Distin, Neville; Donovan, Fellaini, Osman, Drenthe; Anichebe, Saha

Sports Mole says: 2-0
