AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Tottenham dominated territory, holding 62 percent of possession and forcing 14 shots to Everton's 12, yet only two of those efforts tested the away goal compared with three on target from the visitors. Everton were the more disciplined side in terms of shape but picked up both yellow cards shown in the match, while Tottenham committed more fouls without seeing a card. The contest ended without a single goal, red card or clear turning point to shift the balance.
Andrew Robertson edged the ratings with a 7.26 mark for Tottenham, just ahead of Everton's Jarrad Branthwaite on 7.22, with neither directly involved in a goal on a night short of clear-cut chances.
Tottenham's dominance of the ball, with 62 percent possession, did not translate into a breakthrough against a resolute Everton defence.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Tottenham 45%, the draw 28%, Everton 27%. It finished Tottenham 0–0 Everton.
Level sides, Tottenham's control of the ball swings it — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and Tottenham's control of the ball gives Tottenham the lean. The draw at 28% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Tottenham in front?
Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1848 to 1866. Sides this close won 43.1% of 15,973 home games (draw 26.7%, visitors 30.2%). Tottenham hold 11 more possession points (57 to 46 in recent games) — and between equals, control has been worth something. Between evenly-matched sides, home teams with this control edge won 47.9% of 5,211 games, vs 44.0% when styles were level.
Why only 45%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Tottenham's column. Across 11,058 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.7% where the rating map expected 44.9%, with draws up 2.0 — negative in every season since 2018.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Everton win?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 26.7%. These teams' recent games average 2.9 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.6% of 25,048. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Tottenham have rebuilt the eleven — fewer of last season's regular starters are still starting. Squad turnover reads dramatic but hasn't moved results once the rating is controlled: the busiest windows landed within noise across 5,368 games, rebuilt elevens likewise across 5,446, and even losing the most regular starters showed nothing (5,336). Tottenham have won the last 5 home meetings with Everton. Streaks like this look decisive, but sides on a 3+ home run in a fixture won 58.9% of 4,902 such games vs 58.4% class-expected — the strength that built the streak is already in the rating.
