Everton v West Ham

Everton vs West Ham Preview

Everton bring a solid looking eight-match unbeaten sequence in the Premier League into this upcoming encounter at home against West Ham as Everton manager David Moyes will face one of his former clubs at Goodison Park with his Toffees outfit sitting one place above their visitors ahead of Saturday's clash.

West Ham dropped down the Premier League table to 16th place following a 1-0 loss at home to Newcastle United on Monday night and now The Hammers face a tricky outing up on merseyside on Saturday afternoon especially as Graham Potter's side have managed to collect just two wins from their last seven games overall.

Everton have picked up four important wins within their previous eight unbeaten games in the English top flight as The Toffees have inflicted defeats upon the likes of Tottenham, Brighton, Leicester City and Crystal Palace respectively, along with picking up useful points by way of being involved in four draws as well.

Stalemates with Liverpool, Manchester United, Brentford and Wolves have helped the merseyside hosts pull away from the bottom three clubs, while the goals market may also be appealing for this upcoming fixture, especially as six out of these last eight games have also resulted in both teams scoring.

West Ham stumbled to a third loss in five games in the Premier League last time out at home against Newcastle United but nevertheless, The Hammers would need to produce an extremely poor run of catastrophic proportions to be involved in a relegation battle from their current position in the table.

Indeed, West Ham possess a 16-point cushion between themselves and the bottom three clubs but the visitors will no doubt be keen to set the record straight here at Goodison Park as the London club have slipped to four defeats within their previous seven games.

Recent defeats at the hands of Crystal Palace, Chelsea, Brentford and Newcastle United have overshadowed West Ham's recent highlights of recording victories against Arsenal and Leicester City, and their current inconsistent form suggests the goals market may be a more prudent option this Saturday.

Wins away from home have also been more occasional rather than a regular occurrence as The Hammers have managed to collect just four wins from their last 16 outings on the road in the Premier League; however, the goals market also appeals here where the visitors are concerned as 10 of these previous 16 away games have also resulted in both teams hitting the back of the net.

Everton v West Ham Verdict

Both Everton and West Ham have recently been involved in a number of games where both teams have scored and this suggests both sides are capable of finding the back of the net at Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon as well.

Therefore, a score-draw is not out of the question here.
