There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the Premier League table so far. Here's the Sheffield United - Everton latest:

It's no vacation for neither Sheffield United nor Everton 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.

Sheffield are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. For Everton most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.

Sheffield United form and stats

Sheffield United have collected 33 points from their Premier League home games so far after 10-3-5. After failing to beat Brighton & Hove Albion here at Bramall Lane, Sheffield has put together a very nice winning streak on their own turf with four wins in a row.

Sheffield lost their last game at Leicester City (placed 4th) after a 0-2 scoreline. Before that game, the 3-0 home victory against Chelsea.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Sheffield have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won three times, drawn two and lost one.

The Sheffield fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 24 in 18 matches. Sheffield have only conceded 14 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Everton form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Everton so far with only 15 points returning home. The records show 4-3-11 (win-draw-lose). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Everton have lost on their last two travels.

Everton's last game was the home draw against Aston Villa (1-1). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Wolverhampton Wanderers wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.

As mentioned above, Everton drew the match against Aston Villa. Manager C. Ancelotti brought on Theo Walcott to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked.

We have checked recent matches where Everton have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those five games were zero victories, one draw and four defeats.

The visiting Everton have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 19 goals from 18 games. Everton struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 35 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

The two sides played each other earlier this season: Everton - Sheffield 0-2. Head-to-head totals (for the last four meetings): Sheffield won one game, one match ended with a draw and Everton has two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: one / three
