Tottenham Hotspur will host Everton on Sunday in a crucial Premier League final-day clash, with Spurs needing a positive result to secure their top-flight status.

The North London side head into the game after a 2-1 defeat to Chelsea, while Everton also lost 3-1 at home to Sunderland.

Tottenham currently sit 17th on the table with 38 points from 37 matches, just two points above 18th-placed West Ham United.

A win against Everton would guarantee Premier League survival for Spurs, while a draw could also be enough because of their superior goal difference over West Ham. However, defeat could leave Ange Postecoglou’s side relying on results elsewhere.

Everton, meanwhile, occupy 12th position with 49 points and still have a chance of securing a top-half finish depending on outcomes involving other teams.

The Toffees’ hopes of qualifying for Europe ended following their defeat to Sunderland, leaving David Moyes’ side focused on ending the season strongly.

A positive result for Everton could also influence the relegation battle if West Ham secure victory elsewhere.

With Tottenham fighting to avoid relegation and Everton chasing a stronger finish, Sunday’s encounter is expected to provide a dramatic end to the Premier League campaign.
