It's a simple enough equation but Tottenham fans are acutely aware that their team haven't been doing simple this season.

Beat Everton at a toxic Tottenham Stadium and they stay up and, given the state of their goal difference, a draw should also be enough.

Defeat and then it's all eyes on the London Stadium where West Ham have no choice but to beat Leeds if they want to send their capital rivals down in their place.

So, simple enough. But there has to be the fear for home supporters, given what a horrible and unpredictable mess Tottenham's season has been to this point, that a twist or two on the final day is inevitable.

David Moyes insists his side will take this game seriously even though their European ambitions have vanished following an untimely six-game winless streak.

Roberto De Zerbi's charges very definitely do have to take this game seriously, however, and at a venue where the build-up will have been marked by protests at the running of the club, there is a huge weight on the shoulders of Spurs' stars that won't be easy to deal with.

And given that this team have managed just two wins at home all season, they clearly find playing in north London difficult at the best of times.

In contrast, Everton have not qualified for Europe but they have clocked up more away wins than Champions League-bound Manchester United and Aston Villa, so will fear nothing in the capital.

Inevitably, Spurs are a price they would not normally be if this was any other weekend, meaning Everton are probably a spot of value.

They have also had a week off while Tottenham were lost 2-1 at Chelsea on Tuesday.

On the flip side they were not good at home to Sunderland last weekend, going down 3-1 to extend their winless run to six.

It's not easy to back either side with that in mind, especially when accounting for the potential late drama.

What's evident from the last two games under De Zerbi - a 1-1 draw against Leeds and the 2-1 loss at Chelsea - is that they are starting slowly and panicking later.

In a match where a draw will do and Everton have nothing on the line, expect another slow start but a frantic second half. There might be a goal – or a goal at West Ham – to change the script.

Take the second 45 minutes to produce the most goals for a third Tottenham game in a row, a prospect strengthened by the fact that their last two games have conjured up a combined 20 minutes of second-half stoppage time.

Garner to take World Cup despair out on Spurs

James Garner narrowly missed out on an England World Cup place despite a fine season and he can prove Thomas Tuchel wrong with a big performance, in which he should register least one effort on target for a third game in a row.

Potential drama could see corner count rise

There were 17 corners on Spurs' trip to Everton for the reverse fixture and Everton's visit to Tottenham last term produced another 17, so these sides can clearly lay on some entertainment if in the mood.

Over four cards

There have been 18 cards in Tottenham's last three matches and now's not the time for this spiky outfit to start behaving itself with the stakes through the roof.

Micky van de Ven to have a shot on target

Two of Van de Ven's seven goals this season came in the 3-0 win at Everton and the decent Dutchman can ask a question or two of Jordan Pickford.

Jordan Pickford to make three or more saves

Given Spurs may not score many but are creating chances, take the England keeper to make at least three saves.

Pays out at 11-2 with bet365
