Everton’s final game of the Premier League season takes place on Sunday afternoon against Tottenham Hotspur.

David Moyes‘ side are winless in their last six games, so there is a bit of pressure on the Everton manager to get back into the win column.

Many fans have urged Angus Kinnear to replace Moyes at the end of the season, with Andoni Iraola available.

Ahead of the clash in North London, Opta’s supercomputer has issued it’s prediction in what could be a game that decides relegation.

Everton are the underdogs vs Tottenham Hotspur

If Everton were to beat Tottenham and West Ham win at home to Leeds United, Spurs would suffer relegation to the Championship.

So, the Toffees have a big say on the relegation battle, and Moyes has a huge chance to help out his former club.

However, quite remarkably, the supercomputer has only given the visitors a 26.2% chance of securing three points.

Strangely, Tottenham are the heavy favourites, as they’ve been given a 51.1% chance of victory despite winning just two home games all season in the league.

Where will Everton be in the table by 6pm on Sunday afternoon? 🥲

A draw is deemed 22.7% likely, so all things considered, Everton are actually the big underdogs this weekend.

Despite their poor form recently, they still have a very strong record on the road, as they sit joint third in the away table.

Everton will certainly want to end the season well and finish in the top 10 as that’d help to attract their summer transfer targets.
