THE LOWDOWN

EVERTON

  • Everton return to action with the pressure firmly on both players and manager alike following a dismal last three results in all competitions which saw them not only beaten by both Leicester and Bournemouth, but also knocked out of the Carabao Cup by the latter.
  • Both Andros Townsend and James Garner miss out through injury, whilst striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin and defender Mason Holgate are doubtful.

WOLVES

  • Wolves will be desperate for new head coach Julen Lopetegui to make an immediate impact on their fortunes for the better, with them currently lying bottom of the Premier League despite a strong squad on paper.
  • After scoring in their recent Carabao Cup victory over Gillingham, Raul Jimenez could start and be given the opportunity to reverse both his and his side’s fortunes going forward, with Sasa Kalajdzic out for the long term.

THE PREDICTION

Neither side can afford defeat here with both at the wrong end of the table and each desperate for a positive result. This could therefore turn around to be a tense affair, with a high-scoring game particularly unlikely when you factor in that these two teams have combined for a total of just 19 goals scored across the season so far. With that in mind, back under 2.5 goals to be scored across the 90 minutes.

TIP: UNDER 2.5 GOALS
