THE LOWDOWN

EVERTON

  • Everton fans will have understandably feared the worst after they went one goal down away at Man City on Saturday, but a brave, resurgent display from Frank Lampard’s men saw them come back to draw 1-1 and pick up a vital point.
  • Midfielder Amadou Onana misses out through suspension, whilst centre-backs Yerry Mina and Michael Keane are both doubtful through illness and injury respectively.

BRIGHTON

  • Brighton never recovered from falling behind so early against table toppers Arsenal on New Year’s Eve, ultimately losing 2-4 which may be seen as a slight positive when taking into account that they were three goals down at one stage.
  • World Cup winner Alexis Mac Allister has returned to the club and could potentially play a part at Goodison Park, but the likes of Adam Webster and Danny Welbeck will miss out.

THE TEAM NEWS

EVERTON

PREDICTED XI (5-4-1): Pickford; Patterson, Godfrey, Coady, Tarkowski, Mykolenko; Iwobi, Davies, Gueye, Gray; Calvert-Lewin

THE PREDICTION

The Everton backline were outstanding at the Etihad Stadium and provided they can replicate those high levels of concentration and performance, then they stand an excellent chance of overcoming Brighton, who in contrast looked extremely defensively throughout their defeat at the hands of Arsenal. The Seagulls’ last five league matches have seen them average two goals conceded per game and this Everton side with new-found confidence following this past weekend are worth backing to gain a crucial three points here, via the draw no bet market.

TIP: EVERTON DRAW NO BET
