Free predictions and betting picks for Everton vs Wolves

Bookmaker Ratings prediction one: Wolves Double Chance – 1.62

Bookmaker Ratings prediction two: Both Teams to Score – 1.91

Wolves Double Chance

Everton’s confidence was already at a low ebb following a run of six defeats in seven league assignments, though the Toffees’ 5-0 drubbing at Tottenham on Monday evening would have sent self-belief levels plummeting even further. Wolves meanwhile, galvanised their spirits with an impressive 4-0 win over Wolves on Thursday and Bruno Lage’s robust Wanderers should be difficult to beat at Goodison Park.

Both Teams to Score

Both teams have scored in five of the last seven encounters between Everton and Wolves and the same market could be worth pursuing on Sunday. The Toffees have kept only one clean sheet in their last 14 league tussles, while Wolves have shut out their opponents just twice in their last nine attempts. Those records suggest that both defences are likely to concede this weekend.

Preliminary review and match prediction for Everton vs Wolves

Everton’s 5-0 loss at Tottenham on Monday evening was harrowing for two reasons and alongside the damaging effect of the thumping itself, the result brought into clear focus the real possibility of relegation for the Toffees.

While talk of the drop had been almost flirtatiously bandied about before Monday’s aberration, conversations about relegation have become much more serious in the aftermath and Sunday’s clash with Wolves at Goodison Park suddenly takes on enormous importance.

Frank Lampard’s side face Wanderers and Newcastle in successive home fixtures before they embark on a nightmare run in and should the Blues drop the ball against Wolves and the Magpies, knees will start to knock.

However, while a win on Sunday is paramount, beating Bruno Lage’s formidable Wolves outfit could prove a tricky task.

Wanderers had been reeling following three defeats on the spin (Arsenal twice and West Ham), though a confident showing coupled with a 4-0 win over Watford on Thursday should be enough for Lage’s talented group to shake off any self-doubt.

The Midlanders have travelled well this term and only the Premier League’s top three, Man City, Liverpool and Chelsea, have collected more points on the road than Wolves in 2021/22.

That record doesn’t make for light reading for an Everton team teetering on the edge of collapse and a slow start on Sunday would see the atmosphere at Goodison Park turn nasty.

The Blues’ run of seven defeats in eight league tussles is relegation-worthy form and their only victory during that dismal period came against a Leeds side that just about everyone seems to batter.

Everton’s defence was described as “Championship standard” by Sky pundit Jamie Carragher on Monday evening, though Frank Lampard’s midfielders and attackers are playing well below standard too, and it looks as though Wolves have a favourable set of circumstances to capitalise on on Sunday.

With Everton’s plight considered, Wolves are available at a generous price to avoid defeat in the double chance market.

Safe Bets

Everton’s defensive record this season has been abysmal and having kept just one clean sheet in their last 14 league fixtures, the Toffees seem certain to concede on Sunday. In a relatively simple manoeuvre, you can back Wolves to score at a safe-looking 1.5 at Goodison Park.

Get Quick Rich

The Toffees have conceded at least two goals in six of their last ten Premier League matches and with selection problems in defence, they look vulnerable again on Sunday. Wolves scored twice en-route to beating Everton at Molineux last year and they are priced at generous 3.25 to notch over 1.5 times again this weekend.

Everton vs Wolves first goalscorer

Mexican striker Raul Jimenez gave Wolves the lead against Watford on Thursday evening and the 30-year-old was among Wanderers’ scorers when they beat Everton in November. Five of Jimenez’s six Premier League goals this term have been firsts and at 7.0, the centre-forward is a great option in the first goal scorer market again.

Everton vs Wolves Team News

Yerry Mina, Fabian Delph and Tom Davies are still injured for Everton, while Demarai Gray, Michael Keane and Ben Godfrey are considered doubtful.

Ki-Jana Hoever and Nelson Semedo are bout out for Wolves so expect Jonny to feature. Max Kilman, Leander Dendoncker and Pedro Neto come start having been on the bench against Watford.

Starting Lineups

Everton: Pickford – Coleman, Holgate, Kane, Mykolenko – Allan, Doucoure, van de Beek – Gray, Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin

Wolves: Sa – Kilman, Coady, Saiss – Jonny, Neves, Dendoncker, Ait Nouri – Podence, Neto, Jimenez

Highlighted Player

Donny van de Beek

Donny van de Beek has been neat and tidy without setting the world alight since his loan move to Everton from Manchester United, though you get the sense that the Dutchman will have to up his game considerably to have a long-term future with his parent club. The 24-year-old will need to be at his best to win the midfield battle against Wolves’ counterparts Ruben Neves and Joao Moutinho on Sunday.
