Current form
Everton have won 3 out of 5 games in the Premier League. In fact, thanks to these wins, the team has pulled away from the bottom of the table. In the week, Everton beat Burnley 3-0 in the Carabao Cup. So they will definitely go into the game in a better frame of mind than their opponents.
Brighton have won 5 points in their last 5 games. Their last win was against Bournemouth on 24th September. Unlike their opponent, Brighton didn’t play any game during the week as they were knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Chelsea in the last round.
Table position
Everton have moved up to 15th place thanks to their last few games. The visitors, however, after a great fight at the top of the table, with a drop in form, have also fallen within the table, down to 7th place. Brighton, especially after a great start, probably thought they could do better than where they are now.
Key players
Shooting wise, their team is led by none other than Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who is being chased by Abdoulaye Doucoure, both players have the same number of goals, 3. Jordan Pickford in goal is of course a key player, as he has only scored 14 times in 10 rounds.
On the other hand, Japanese winger Kaoru Mitoma is definitely worth watching. The Japanese player is great at dribbling, often pushes into the back of the net, and is even able to find his teammates in great positions. His 3+3 stats speak for themselves.
Matches against each other
Mutual history counts 12 matches. 6 times the Liverpool team won, 4 times the Brighton players were happy and 2 times the match ended in a draw. In the last match, the home team destroyed their opponent 5:1 on his field, and thanks to this result they stayed in the Premier League.
Betting tips
In the last 3 matches between the two sides, at least 5 goals have always been scored, so a bet on more than 2.5 goals in a match might not be in vain at all. Although Everton are in better form than Brighton, the away team is a slight favourite. For Brighton, the opponent of Everton’s tip is suitable to kick off and restore the lost form.
