Team Form & Key Storylines
Everton approach this encounter with a sense of quiet confidence. Their recent home form has been solid, remaining unbeaten in their last three matches at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. The Toffees have shown defensive resilience, conceding just 1.2 goals per game on average, while also demonstrating an ability to grind out results against tough opposition—evident in their recent 2:2 draw away at Manchester United, a match where they defied the odds.
West Ham, on the other hand, are navigating choppy waters both on and off the pitch. Despite a resounding 3:0 away win at Nottingham Forest, the Hammers have struggled for consistency, conceding an average of 2.0 goals per match in their last ten outings. Off-field issues have added to the pressure, making this trip to Merseyside a crucial test of character for David Moyes’ men.
Head-to-Head & Tactical Matchup
The last meeting between these sides ended in a 1:1 stalemate, highlighting just how closely matched they can be. Historically, Everton have enjoyed a slight edge at home, often dictating possession and tempo. Expect the Toffees to control the ball (projected 56% possession), with West Ham looking to hit on the break.
Everton are forecasted to register 15 shots (3 on target), while West Ham are expected to be more clinical, with 4 of their 8 shots likely to test the goalkeeper. Corners should be plentiful, with a projected total of 9 split almost evenly.
