Only a win will satisfy the Everton supporters in this Goodison Park clash with Arsenal, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the Premier League table.
- Everton have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Everton have scored more than double the goals of Arsenal.
It's no vacation for neither Everton nor Arsenal as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Everton form and stats
Overall Premier League stats at home this season for Everton are 3-1-2 (wins-draw-losses).
Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Robin Olsen not having conceded a league goal in 267 minutes.
A strong away win for Everton against Leicester City the last match, as Richarlison and Mason Holgate were on target. Ahead of that match, Everton won a home game hosting Chelsea (1-0).
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Everton have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found four matches with the results: Won one, drawn one and lost two.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Manchester United are coming to town in four days.
Goals decide football matches and Everton are scoring many of them at home; 13 on target from 6 league matches. Everton have conceded 10 from these games.
Arsenal form and stats
The visitors are W2-D1-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Premier League.
There were no winners in Arsenal's previous match, a Premier League home game that ended 1-1 vs Southampton (placed 3rd). Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Burnley.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Arsenal playing away and similar expectations, we found seven relevant matches. Results were four Arsenal wins, two draws and one defeat.
After this away game Arsenal return home for a Carabao Cup game against Manchester City. That game is only three sleeps after this.
The attacking power of Arsenal when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 6 league matches away. As opposed to that, Arsenal have seen the ball go into their own net 6 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: two wins for Everton, one draw and seven wins for Arsenal. Over 2,5 goals: six times; under 2,5 goals: four games.Top Goalscorers
