Tottenham vs Everton Premier League preview: Spurs still goalless after 270 minutes

Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton kicks off on 12 Sept 2026 at 12:30 EST and 17:30 GMT.

Spurs still goalless after 270 minutes of football

Despite Tottenham's vast expenditure in the transfer market, they've still not managed to trouble the scorers in their first three Premier League games this term. Defeats to Brentford and Newcastle were followed by a drab 0-0 stalemate with Nottingham Forest last time out. Roberto De Zerbi's side failed to register even a single shot on target against Forest and were thankful for VAR intervention, which ruled out Neco Williams' late strike because of handball. New signings Savio (start), Omar Marmoush (start) and Mykhailo Mudryk (introduced as a substitute) all featured.
