With another international break coming to an end, Everton are gearing up for their Premier League clash against Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday, with both sides desperate for the three points.

The Toffees made some impressive summer signings but are yet to really click this season, managing just four points from their first three matches.

Tottenham are also struggling for consistency, in part due to their temporary move to Wembley, and Mauricio Pochettino’s men are level on points but three places above Everton due to goal-difference.

In early team news, Ronald Koeman’s side are without Seamus Coleman, Ramiro Funes Mori, James McCarthy, Ross Barkley, Yannick Bolasie and Davy Klaassen, while Jordan Pickford and Mason Holgate are rated at 75 per cent to recover from muscle and ankle injuries respectively.

With home advantage Everton will be quietly confident of getting another three points on the board but they will be wary of Tottenham’s Harry Kane, who is yet to get off the mark domestically. That said it is no longer August – a month where he has always, somewhat inexplicably, struggled.

Bearing everything in mind here is how we expect Everton to line up against Tottenham on Saturday afternoon:
