Everton vs Arsenal 16.09.2023 Prediction: Premier League

Match Overview

Everton host Arsenal at Goodison Park on 16 September, Friday in a match in the fifth round of the Premier League. Both these teams will be looking to come back after the international break with a spring in their step and try to recuperate the best they can. Everton have not got off to the best of starts this season while Arsenal have done more than decently so far. 

Key Highlights 

Ranked 20th in goals scored per match (0.5 goals), Everton have not been at their best this season. As one remembers all too well, they just about managed to avoid being relegated last season. They have also not kept a clean sheet in their last five matches. Arsenal, on the other hand, haven't lost in their last seven matches.

Injury Report

Thomas Partey, Jurrien Timber and Mohamed Elneny will not be available for selection for Arsenal owing to their respective injuries. Everton have a longer list of injured players including Dele Alli, Seamus Coleman and Andre Gomes among others.

Prediction

Neither Everton nor Arsenal appear to be the downright favourites to win this game. While Everton will be banking upon their home support, Arsenal will feel that they have the better side both on paper and form, and this will allow them to feel more confident than their opponents. We expect Arsenal to win this game quite comfortably in the end.
