Bitesize Prediction: Everton vs Wolves – 04/12/24

Competition: Premier League

Market: Goal to be scored in both halves

Odds: 5/ 6 @ 1xBet

In what is a real relegation six-pointer from Goodison Park on Wednesday night, Everton will welcome Wolves to the blue half of Merseyside.

Starting with the hosts, putting in a nightmare performance over the weekend as they slumped to a 4-0 drumming against Manchester United, the pressure on Sean Dyche’s shoulders is once again at a boiling point. Showing a string of issues since opening up the new campaign, Everton open up their return to Goodison Park on Wednesday night holding just a two-point buffer from slipping into the relegation zone. Opening November with a 1-0 loss at the hands of fellow strugglers Southampton, the former Burnley boss is desperate seeking a much-needed boost here. However, mustering just a pair of Premier League victories so far this season, the Blues have continued to show some glaring issues in the final third. Playing out respective 0-0 stalemates against Brentford and West Ham on either side of November’s international break, Everton have now failed to find the net in any of their last four appearances. It should also be highlighted, Dyche’s side have also drawn a blank in each of their last four consecutive showdowns at Goodison Park – a run that stems all the way back to October 26th.

As for the visitors, while Wolves might have claimed an essential boost on either side of November’s international break, Gary O’Neil’s men came crashing back down to earth last weekend. Slumping to a 4-2 loss at home against Bournemouth, the former Bournemouth boss finds his squad battling it out in the relegation zone. Despite marking their return from the fortnight interval with a sensational 4-1 win away at Fulham, Wednesday’s guests have gained a reputation for their glaring defensive issues. Along with putting just a single Premier League clean sheet so far this season, Wolves have also shipped 32 goals in their first 13 top-flight showdowns. Opening the midweek fixtures with their goal difference keeping them in the relegation zone, O’Neil’s men should take some solace from their most recent battle against Everton. Storming their way to a remarkable 3-0 romp when they welcomed the Blues to town 12 months ago, the Midlands-based outfit will be desperately seeking a repeat performance when they travel to Goodison Park on Wednesday night.
