Everton vs Brentford prediction

Everton recorded their first win in four games last time out, with goals from James Garner and Thierno Barry earning them a 0-2 victory at Nottingham Forest.

The Toffees will take on a Brentford side who are four games unbeaten in the Premier League, and most recently played out a goalless draw with Tottenham, who are managed by their former manager Thomas Frank.

These are two evenly matched mid-table sides with only a point separating them. Both defences have been in good form lately, with not many conceded, so under 2.5 goals seems likely in a match that coulkd be short on goalmouth action.

Everton vs Brentford tip: Under 2.5 goals
