Analysis
Five teams are realistically involved in the race for two spots in the top four in the Premier League including Tottenham and Everton. Spurs is in the lead in third place and stopped the rot with a win over Swansea last week. The loss of Bale might massively impact the team nonetheless considering how dependent the side is on him. Everton has won three games on the trot in the league. This is however their first away game since 23rd February. Everton had the upper hand in both meetings last season. A triumph for the team from Merseyside will help them move closer to the top four.
