Liverpool: Everton is gearing up to play Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League on Wednesday night at Goodison Park. This match is crucial for both teams, especially for Everton, who have not won in their last five league games.
Sean Dyche, the Everton manager, is facing significant pressure. Fans are growing frustrated with the team’s recent performances and results. The atmosphere around the club is tense as they seek to turn their fortunes around.
Chris Sutton, a well-known pundit, believes that Dyche should not be blamed for the current situation. With challenging matches ahead, Sutton predicts that Everton will secure a 2-1 victory over Wolves, emphasizing the need for a win.
Sutton shared his thoughts with BBC Sport, noting that Wolves have conceded 32 goals in 13 league matches. This statistic gives him confidence that Everton can find the back of the net against them.
He mentioned, “This is a huge game at the bottom of the table. Initially, I thought it might end in a draw, but I am actually going to go with the Toffees to grab the three points.”
Everton desperately needs this win, especially with a tough schedule ahead, including the Merseyside derby on Saturday. The team is coming off a disappointing 4-0 loss to Manchester United, which has added to the pressure.
If they suffer another setback on Wednesday, it could create a negative atmosphere at Goodison Park. However, David Moyes believes that Everton has enough talent to steer clear of relegation.
The main issue for Everton right now is their inability to convert chances into goals. In the match against United, they had several great opportunities but failed to score.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin has only two goals in 13 games, and Beto has not had consistent playing time. Although Armando Broja and Youssef Chermiti have returned to training, they are not yet fit to start.
Wolves are currently in the relegation zone and have shown weaknesses in defense. If Everton can score early in the match, they are likely to secure all three points.
