Tottenham Hotspur face a life-or-death Premier League clash against Everton on the final day of the 2025–26 season, with Spurs’ top-flight status on the line at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.
The match kicks off at 4 p.m. local time on Sunday, May 24, 2026, with Tottenham needing to avoid defeat to stay in the Premier League. Only one scenario can send Roberto De Zerbi’s side into the Championship: if Tottenham lose at home to Everton and West Ham beat Leeds United at the London Stadium.
Sunday’s home match against Everton is Tottenham’s biggest game in recent history. The club sits perilously close to the relegation zone, and if Spurs avoid losing, they will remain in the Premier League.
Should Tottenham avoid relegation,_home fans will be celebrating relief rather than euphoria. The last time Tottenham hosted Everton, they won 3–0 thanks to a brace from Micky van de Ven, but the stakes are far higher this time around.
Preview and live coverage are available on Sky Sports Main Event, with the match broadcast live from 3 p.m. kickoff prepared for 4 p.m.
