Everton vs Brighton Prediction

Brighton continued their subpar form in the Premier League in a 1-1 draw to Fulham last weekend at The Amex.

It was the team’s fourth straight winless affair as the Seagulls dropped to seventh in the Premier League table, sitting nine points below leaders Tottenham.

Roberto De Zerbi’s men finally had a rest in mid-week after suffering an early League Cup exit and their players should be fresher for the Saturday’s trip to Goodison Park in Matchday No 11.

On the other side, Everton had a R16 League Cup affair against Burnley on Wednesday evening. Considering their short rotation, we see fatigue playing a big role in the weekend’s game.

In terms of form, Everton enter this in higher spirits after winning three of the last five Premier League matches.

Sean Dyche can be thrilled with the performance his men have put up last Sunday in the capital, keeping West Ham completely at bay and picking up a big 1-0 victory at London Stadium, courtesy of a Dominic Calvert-Lewin winner.

Everton’s back line will be under huge pressure on Saturday but so will Brighton’s. The Seagulls own of the worst defensive records in the league with 19 goals shipped this term.

Knowing that Everton play surprisingly active attacking-minded football under Dyche this season (especially at home), we can see goals on Saturday at Goodison.

Latest Meetings

The outfits have two wins each in the previous four meetings.

We have seen two goal fests in the previous season’s head to head matches between Everton and Brighton.

Four of the last six H2H matches between these rivals produced at least five goals.

The Verdict

This match has goals in it. Both teams play attacking football and their recent H2H clashes have regularly provided goal fests.

The Over 2.5 goals FT & Both Teams To Score is the main betting option and you can back it at the 1.80 odds. We also fancy the away win at the 2.20 odds knowing the visitors had a full week of rest unlike Everton who played Burnley in the League Cup round of 16 on Wednesday.
