Coming from the 1-1 draw against Arsenal, Brighton & Hove Albion will be inspired by that result and will want to do well against the Tofees.

Brighton are doing well and currently in 13th position with 10 points separating them and the relegation zone. On paper, they look safe. However, this is football anything can happen and so they will want to do well in all remaining matches.

Brighton have been solid at home this season and lost just 2 matches at home. That came against top teams Chelsea and Tottenham. In 9 home games, they have scores 14 goals and conceded 11 goals. This include scoring at least a goal in all their 9 home matches. This shows that they are not goal-shy in front of their fans.

Fact

  • Everton have won 2 of the last 3 meetings between both teams
  • There have been over 2.5 goals in 4 out of Everton last 5 games
  • Brighton & Hove Albion have not lost any home match when they scored first

Prediction

This is an open game. The match will be dominated by Everton and Brighton & Hove Albion will be hoping to launch counter attacks with long ball into the box for Glenn Murray to score. Everton are not good defensively and will have to park the bus if they want to keep a clean sheet. Fortunately, they are not playing a top team, so they will attack which will see them vulnerable at the back for counter attacks.
