Everton
DDDLDW
Everton are hoping to win again after their last result, a 0-1 Premier League triumph versus Nottingham Forest.
In that game, Everton managed 58% possession and 13 attempts on goal with 5 of them on target. The scorer for Everton was Abdoulaye Doucouré (94'). Nottingham Forest got 11 attempts on goal with 5 on target.
It’s been all too rare in recent games that Everton have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. It will be a concern for them that Everton have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 5 goals in the process. It will be interesting to find out whether or not that trend will end up being continued on into this next match.
Leading up to this clash, Everton:
- have not beaten Manchester City in their previous 15 league matches. That has got to hurt.
- are unbeaten in their previous 6 league matches at home.
- are without a win at home for the past 4 league matches. Their fans aren't happy.
