Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: Match outcome: Brighton to win — 2.11
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: Total goals: Over 2.5 — 1.97
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Anytime goalscorer: Leandro Trossard — 3.74
Although Everton drew 1-1 against Manchester City at the Etihad and Brighton lost 4-2 to Arsenal, the latter are more likely to bounce back to winning ways first, thanks to their recent forms. Everton are winless in their last five league games while Brighton have three wins in their last five league games.
Everton don’t score many goals, hence the majority of their league games this season ended with under 2.5 goals. Brighton love scoring and for this reason, I think the total goals will exceed two goals. Plus Brighton’s last five competitive matches ended with over 2.5 goals.
Brighton are the favourites to win the game and Trossard, who have scored seven league goals this season, is likely to get on the scoreboard as he’s one of the top favourites to score anytime.
The Toffees have been dreadful this season, having won only 3 of their opening 17 Premier League matches. For this reason, they sit in the 15th position with two points above the relegation zone.
Everton raised many eyebrows when they held Manchester City to a frustrating 1-1 draw at the Etihad on Saturday but it’s left to be seen if that would be the start of a turn of form for the second part of the season.
The Seagulls are anxious to get back to winning ways after they succumbed to rather a humiliating 4-2 defeat at home to Arsenal on Saturday.
“>Brighton head into their next game against Everton as the favourites and will look to play as such in a bid to extend Frank Lampard’s winless run of five league games.
Although Everton drew against Manchester City and Brighton lost at home to Arsenal, the latter are likely to get all three points at Goodison Park as there’s a massive difference in form between both sides.
Because Everton don’t score many goals and are somewhat decent at the back, I think Brighton might win this game 3-1.
Brighton are the favourites to win but back the Seagulls to either win or draw as it’s safe this way.
James Garner, Michael Keane and Andros Townsend are injured. Yerry Mina and Anthony Gordon are doubts for the game. Amadou Onana to miss the game through suspension.
