Spurs vs Everton - Mauricio's preview

Sun 30 November 2014, 10:00|Tottenham Hotspur

Mauricio Pochettino is full of respect for his Everton counterpart Roberto Martinez – and he’d love to put one over him today (Sunday, November 30).

Everton have started to hit form and arrive at the Lane for the 4pm kick-off on a run of five unbeaten matches in the Premier League.

That has lifted them up to ninth in the table - on the same 17 points as us - and their confidence was further boosted with a 2-0 win at Wolfsburg in the Europa League on Thursday to join us in the knockout stage of the competition.

“It’s a very important game,” said Mauricio.

“Everton are a very good team, we expect a tough game and we need to be all together, to create a good energy with our supporters, we need their support and we need to try to get the three points.

“It’s a big game for us after the victory at Hull. We need to get a win at home.

“Roberto Martinez is a very good friend, a very good person, a great manager and I’ll be happy to see him again on Sunday.”
