After galivanting around Europe all week, we return to domestic action tonight, with Everton at home to Spurs.
The two clubs are 7th & 8th in the Premier League, Everton are just 1 point behind Spurs but have a game in hand, as well as home advantage.
So quite how Everton are 23/10 (call it 9/4) & Spurs are 23/20 (call it 11/10)? is a mystery to me. In my world it should be the other way round, Everton should be favourites.
Then again, the bookies rarely get these things wrong.
Everton v Spurs @ 8pm
Ah, wait - I just realised the reason Everton are such a huge price - this man is due to return from injury;

Opta stats
Everton's 1-0 win over Spurs in the reverse fixture ended a run of 15 league games without a win against them (D7 L8). They've not done the league double over Spurs since the 1985-86 campaign.
Tottenham are unbeaten in their last seven away league games against Everton (W3 D4), since losing three in a row at Goodison Park between January 2011 and December 2012.
The last four meetings between Everton and Tottenham at Goodison Park in all competitions have produced 22 goals (8 for Everton, 14 for Spurs), with the Toffees winning 5-4 in an FA Cup game earlier this season.
Everton have won just one of their last eight Premier League home games (D2 L5), with the Toffees failing to score more than once in any of these eight games (5 goals in total).
Everton have failed to win any of their last four Premier League matches (D2 L2), last going five in a row without winning in the competition back in December 2018 under Marco Silva - indeed, the fifth game in that run came against Spurs, losing 2-6 at Goodison Park.
Tottenham have dropped 18 points from winning positions in the Premier League this season, with only Brighton (20) losing more. Indeed, Spurs have let the lead slip in three of their last four Premier League matches (D1 L2).
42 per cent (11/26) of Tottenham's away league goals this season came in their first two such matches (5-2 v Southampton, 6-1 v Man Utd), with Spurs netting 15 times in their 14 games on the road since.
Tottenham striker Harry Kane has scored 10 goals in his last 11 games against Everton in all competitions, including six goals in six appearances at Goodison Park.
Everton could become just the third side to complete a league double against a side managed by José Mourinho, with all of these coming in the Portuguese's two seasons in north London with Spurs (vs Chelsea in 2019-20 and Liverpool this season).
Tottenham's Heung-Min Son has scored 14 Premier League goals in 30 appearances this season, his joint-best tally in a single campaign in the competition alongside 2016-17 (14 goals in 34 apps). Eight of his 14 goals have come away from home this term, twice as many as he netted on the road in 2019-20 (4).
