Everton
WatfordEverton Form
Third from the bottom and just two wins all season. That’s all that Everton’s form has amounted to. Maybe it was not the manager after all because since the sacking of Ronald Koeman the Toffees have lost all three games with David Unsworth in temporary charge. So there has been no change of fortunes for them and no response from the players who lacked fight once again as they crumbled to a 3-0 loss at Lyon in the UEFA Europa League in midweek. Back on the domestic front, Everton have one point from their last four league games and have lost three of their last four games at Goodison Park. They are conceding at an average of two goals per game this season.
Watford Form
That’s good news for Watford who have scored exactly two goals in each of their five away games in the top flight this season. They suffered their first away loss in a battling 4-2 defeat at Chelsea in their last away game, but they had plenty of chances to win that game. They suffered a home loss against Stoke last weekend despite dominating the game, so they are suddenly looking to snap a two-match losing streak. They are looking more likely than Everton to break out of their respective slump. The Hornets are W3 D1 L1 on the road this season in the top flight and can expose Everton’s floundering back line.
Head to Head News
Everton and Watford traded home wins last season and Everton have only lost the one game in their last six Premier League matches against the Hornets. So that’s a positive for them at least and they are unbeaten in four previous home games in the Premier League against Watford, winning three of those.
Top Betting Tips
A Watford/Draw Double Chance at 4/5 looks huge value for this one. Watford have scored well on the road and only just had their undefeated away from snapped. Everton are lacking goals and could get hurt once again as they don’t look any closer to solving their problems.
