Tottenham face Everton this weekend as they desperately battle against relegation alongside West Ham.

[p][a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/tottenham/UDg08Ohm/"]Tottenham[/a] have collected a meagre 12 points at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this term, the joint-lowest total in the league alongside Burnley as they [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/game/soccer/everton-KluSTr9s/tottenham-UDg08Ohm/?mid=W6HXFFKE"]prepare to welcome Everton to North London[/a]. [/p][p]However, the good news is that Tottenham's bid for survival could be boosted by the return of [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/solanke-dominic/OrADwZse/"]Dominic Solanke[/a] as the striker aims to provide the firepower needed up front to break down the Toffees’ defence. [/p][p]Roberto De Zerbi’s side should find some attacking success against an Everton team who have conceded at least two goals in each of their last five away games and Solanke could be the player to step up for the side. [/p][embed guid="336bbce7-e293-4e7e-ba26-5edc8766f3fb" url="https://x.com/SpursOfficial/status/2058442949147427029?s=20" social-type="twitter" /][p][b]As the relegation fight comes down to the final day, Tottenham will be happy to know that their fate is in their hands as their two-point lead and superior goal difference over [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/west-ham/Cxq57r8g/"]West Ham[/a] means they just need a draw to stay up. [/b][/p][p][b]Anything less, alongside a West Ham victory against Leeds, would send them tumbling down to the Championship in what would be a crushing moment for the side. [/b][/p][p]Everton have been beaten in their last four away matches against Tottenham by an aggregate scoreline of 13-1 and De Zerbi will take comfort that all his side needs is a draw heading into Sunday’s clash. [/p]
