Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard is confident that the Toffees will put their defeat to Tottenham Hotspur behind them and beat Hull City on Wednesday night.

Roberto Martinez's side slumped to their first loss in eight games in Sunday's 2-1 reverse at White Hart Lane, but the American has earmarked a swift riposte with victory over the Tigers tomorrow.

"We're not a team, and our manager isn't a manager, who dwells on results, we're just looking forward to the Hull game now," he told reporters.

"We're at home, it'll be an opportunity for us to get three points and we are confident we can do that, so we go again.

"It'll be good to be back at Goodison Park to get that feeling again of getting out there in front of our own supporters and have them roar us on."

Hull sit 17th in the Premier League table, seven places below the Merseysiders.
