Wolverhampton Wanderers form and stats
When playing at home in the Premier League, Wolverhampton Wanderers have managed 1 win, 0 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 4 games.
Wolves shared the glory with Leeds United in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1. Hee-Chan Hwang, an attacker, was the highest rated player for the team in that fixture, earning a rating of 7.32 (out of 10). Hwang scored one goal.
A strong away win before that one, visiting Aston Villa and winning 3-2.This is expected to be a close game, with Wolverhampton Wanderers perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Wolverhampton Wanderers as a small favourite), we find nine games. Wolverhampton Wanderers has won one of these, drawn three and lost five.
The lack of attacking qualities in Wolves means that they have only scored 2 goals in 4 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Wolves's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 5 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Everton form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Premier League travels is 1 win, 2 draws and 1 defeat.
Everton failed to get anything from their last game, a Premier League home match vs Watford (placed 14th) that ended with defeat 2-5. As you can tell from the result, the match against Watford was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today? Defender Michael Keane was the best team player with a rating of 7.42. Keane served one assist, hit one key pass and won 11 of 16 duels.
A loss against West Ham United was the result prior to that, in a home game.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Everton playing away and similar expectations, we found four relevant matches. Results were three Everton wins, zero draws and one defeat.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Everton have scored 5 goals in 4 league games away. In the opposite end, Everton have conceded 6 goals in their away games.
