Betting on Everton F.C.
For the second season in a row, the ghosts of relegation haunt an Everton team that will find it difficult to break their three-game losing streak when they take on Arsenal. With just three wins in 20 games, they are 19th in the table with 15 points and are two points behind Wolverhampton to climb out of the relegation places to the Championship.
The problem is that the two-point margin looks huge considering that in the last eight Premier League games they have two draws and six defeats, with 16 goals conceded, and just four scored.
In addition, Sean Dyche’s team is the second-worst team in the league when playing at home, with only eight points in ten games. They have won only two of their three league wins in their home ground and have only scored nine goals in front of their fans.
Probable lineup (3-4-2-1):Jordan Pickford; James Tarkowski, Conor Coady, Yerry Mina; Vitaliy Mykolenko, Seamus Coleman, Idrissa Gueye, Amadou Onana; Alex Iwobi, Demarai Gray; Calvert-Lewin.
Betting on Arsenal F.C.
Arsenal are the polar opposite of Everton as the London club are the current Premier League leaders with a 12-game unbeaten run in the league.
Although they have just been eliminated from the FA Cup, Mikel Arteta’s team has just one defeat in the current league season and with 50 points, they have a five-point advantage over their closest rival, Manchester City, who eliminated them from the cup.
The Gunners are currently enjoying one of their best seasons ever. With 45 goals scored, they are the second-highest scoring club in the championship, and their 16 goals allowed are the second-lowest total, trailing only Newcastle’s 11.
When it comes to Arteta’s side’s away form, they are also number one in the Premiership with 25 points from 10 games played. Along with Newcastle, they have conceded the fewest goals away from home with just six and have scored on as many as 20 occasions.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Aaron Ramsdale; Ben White, William Saliba, Gabriel, Oleksandr Zinchenko; Martin Odegaard, Thomas Partey, Granit Xhaka; Bukayo Saka, Eddie Nketiah, Gabriel Martinelli.
JefeBet Prediction
There is only one reason to think Everton could spring a surprise this weekend when they host Arsenal at Goodison Park.
Although the Toffees do not have a strong home ground to fight for this campaign, the Gunners have come out on top in only one of their last six visits to the stadium. Beyond the win on matchday 9 of the 2017 season, Arsenal recorded four defeats and one draw in the aforementioned span.
Of course, the reality of this season is very different from previous years. Arteta’s side have one of the best performances in the club’s history while Everton are going through some very dark times; however, we shouldn’t rule out the possibility that Goodinson Park can work its magic next Saturday.
Prediction: Arsenal to win (EVE 0 – ARS 2).
