Bitesize Prediction: Everton vs Bournemouth – 07/10/23

Competition: Premier League

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 3/4 @ Pribet

In what looks set to be a thriller from the foot of the Premier League table, Everton will welcome Bournemouth to Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, while Everton might have thought that they had turned a crucial corner when returning from September’s international break, Sean Dyche’s side certainly came crashing back down to earth in a spectacular fashion last weekend. Putting in a nightmare performance on home soil as they eventually slumped to a shock 2-1 loss against top-flight returners Luton, it is no secret that the former Burnley boss has a huge amount of pressure on his shoulders. While the Toffees might have extended on their EFL Cup adventure on September 27th as they claimed an eye-catching 2-1 win away at Aston Villa, a huge part of Everton’s issues has been down to their public struggles at Goodison Park. Including that 2-1 defeat against the Hatters last time out, Dyche’s side have lost each of their opening four Premier League showdowns in the blue half of Merseyside. Tipped to find themselves at the heart of another relegation scrap this season, the Blues face what is a monumental showdown on Saturday afternoon.

As for the visitors, while there might have been much excitement in Bournemouth’s camp when opening up the 2023/24 campaign, the Cherries have failed to find any kind of stability. Last seen getting blown away at the Vitality as they slumped to a routine 4-0 drumming against title contenders Arsenal, Andoni Iraola’s side are still yet to put a single Premier League victory on the board. Mustering just three points from their opening seven top-flight appearances, Bournemouth will travel to Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon sat in the drop zone. Heading into September’s international break with an action-packed 2-2 stalemate against Brentford, the former Rayo Vallecano boss will have a mounting headache over his side’s extended defensive issues. Continuing on from last season, Iraola’s men have collected just one clean sheet from their last 10 Premier League showdowns. With the Cherries seeing each of their first four away fixtures finish with both teams finding the net, we are expecting a similar outcome here.
