Head-to-head record
Previous meetings: 190
Spurs wins: 72
Draws: 60
Everton wins: 58
As two of the Premier League's six ever-present teams - the others being Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea - meetings between Everton and Tottenham Hotspur are regular occurrences and have in fact been since their inaugural FA Cup showdown in 1904.
Fast-forward 120 years, and there have been 190 competitive clashes between the London and Merseyside giants, the former of whom boast the head-to-head superiority with 72 triumphs to their name, although Everton are not too far behind with 58.
The returning David Moyes led the Toffees to the most recent of those victories in January 2025, where a late Spurs fightback was fruitless in a 3-2 success for Everton, who had previously been thumped 4-0 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in August 2024.
Another 60 matches between Spurs and the Toffees have ended with the spoils shared, including a top-flight encounter at Goodison Park in February 2024, where Richarlison would seemingly have the last laugh at his old stomping ground with a brace before Jarrad Branthwaite's last-gasp leveller.
Before 2025, Everton had gone without a win in eight straight matches against Tottenham, whom they had not prevailed against since a nine-goal FA Cup spectacular in 2021 under Carlo Ancelotti before Moyes's masterful homecoming.
That astounding 5-4 success came shortly after Everton's most recent Premier League triumph away to Spurs, which came at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium at the start of the 2020-21 season, as Dominic Calvert-Lewin netted the game's only goal.
In December 2023, though, Tottenham handed out Christmas presents to their supporters two days early with a slender 2-1 victory - where Richarlison was again on target against his former employers.
