Everton will play Chelsea in the seventh round of the English Premier League on October 17. The aristocrats failed to win in the three previous face-to-face meetings in Liverpool, will they be able to break the series of failures today and what bets should we pay attention to? - more on this later in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Everton
Current form
Everton has been ranked in the top 5 in the Premier League for six rounds, which is definitely a positive result for a modest club. Since the beginning of the season, the Toffees have not suffered a single defeat yet, they have drawn four meetings and won twice. Davis Moyes' players habitually adhere to a pragmatic style with an emphasis on defense. Liverpool have only conceded five goals. In the last round, Everton defeated Hull 2-2 on a visit. Despite the fact that the opponent was inferior in class, the result did not cause much surprise, since the toffees had to play the first number themselves, and this is not their element.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mikolenko's entry into the field is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
Everton have drawn in four of their last five Premier League matches.
Everton players fouled less often than their opponents in five of the previous six matches.
Chelsea, under the leadership of Xabi Alonso, are showing unpredictable results. So, in the last round, the aristocrats defeated Bournemouth at home in excellent style (5:1). Before that, there was a frankly disastrous match against Brentford on the road – a 0 defeat.:3. Since the beginning of the season, the Blues have played three matches away, in which they lost twice, and won the only victory in a difficult battle with Fulham with a score of 3:2. With 10 points scored, Chelsea is in sixth place, lagging behind Brentford and Everton only in additional indicators. If you win today, you have a chance to enter the top 4.
Disqualifications and injuries
Gittens is injured, James and Emega are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
In six consecutive matches with Chelsea, taking into account all tournaments, more than two goals were scored.
In three of Chelsea's previous five matches, no more than two offsides were recorded.
Chelsea defeated Bournemouth in the previous round, but you shouldn't overestimate that victory too much. The game was played at Stamford Bridge, and today we have to play away. The aristocrats in the Premier League lost in two of their three matches away, and they are not stable throughout the season. There are problems in the positional attack, and today, with a high degree of probability, we will have to act in this way, since Everton relies on playing the second number against opponents superior in class.
The Toffees have not suffered a single defeat since the start of the Premier League season, and they have the same 10 points as Chelsea. Everton have not lost to the Aristocrats in their last three face-to-face meetings and are unlikely to interrupt this series. We believe that there is some underestimation of the owners in the line of bookmakers.
Our betting tip is that Everton will not lose by a factor of 1.70
Chelsea, led by Xabi Alonso, strives to play fast attacking football and has no problems scoring goals. At the same time, the aristocrats' defense is not reliable, they conceded 13 goals in six rounds. Everton is effective when playing as the second number, he clearly uses his moments. We expect that there will be an exchange of goals scored in the match.
The second bet is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.59
Betting on corners
In matches involving Chelsea, you can often see an abundance of corners. In three of the five previous matches of the aristocrats, more than 10 serves were served from the corner flag, which we are waiting for today in Liverpool.
The betting tip is that the total number of corners is more than 10.5 with a coefficient of 2.17
