Out of sorts Everton welcome a rampant Tottenham to Goodison Park on matchday 18 in the Premier League.
Sitting in a respectable eighth position, Marco Silva's side were put to the sword by Manchester City last time out and remain winless this month.
On the other hand, third place Spurs have bounced back emphatically since their last league defeat to Arsenal - dumping the Gunners out the Carabao Cup in midweek whilst reigniting their unlikely title hopes with four consecutive wins.
Both challenging for European competition, this usually feisty fixture could give either side impetus ahead of a hectic festive schedule.
