Season ticket holders at Goodison Park haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Everton languishing in the 16th position so far. The guesting Arsenal will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
The hosts Everton saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Carabao Cup. This match was also played here at Goodison Park. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Arsenal have had more rest.
Everton form and stats
Overall Premier League stats at home this season for Everton are 4-1-3 (wins-draw-losses).
The points were shared in Everton's previous game, also at home. Visiting Leicester City (placed 2nd) travelled back with a point after a 2-2 scoreline. 1-1 away at Manchester United before that.
There was plenty of action in the dying minutes of the game against Leicester City as L. Baines's goal in the 90th minute completed a cancellation of 0-2 and secured a point.
This is expected to be a close game, with Everton perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Everton as a small favourite), we find four games. Everton has won 2 of these, drawn 2 and lost 0.
Everton has scored 11 league goals at home this season, in 8 matches. 11 goals have been conceded.
Arsenal form and stats
2 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Arsenal playing as the away team in the Premier League this season.
The manager F. Ljungberg was unhappy after their last game, a Premier League match played at their home ground Emirates Stadium. Arsenal suffered a 0-3 loss to Manchester City (placed 3rd). A 2-2 draw at Standard Liège's stadium before that.
Arsenal did not look prepared in the first half against Manchester City and lost the game during the first 45 minutes. They need to evaluate their pre-match routine before this one.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found four similar matches played by Arsenal in our archives, and the results are: 1 win for Arsenal, 2 draws and 1 defeat.
Arsenal have scored 10 goals on their travels this season, from 8 away games in the league. Arsenal have conceded 12 goals in these games.
