Everton vs Watford Preview and Predictions
Everton vs Watford
English Premier League, Season 2017/18
Date: Sunday, 5th November 2017
Kick-off at 16:30 UK/ 17:30 CET
Venue: Goodison Park, Liverpool.
The sacking of Ronald Koeman barely changed the situation at Everton as the team suffered three defeats in the space of 7 days. Last weekend’s 2-0 loss against Leicester keep the Blues in the relegation zone and it has become extremely hard for extremely hard for caretaker managed to motivate the players.
One of the core problems lie in the inability to bring the best out of the creative players to aid the attack. The team managed just 7 goals from 10 matches so far and has fired blanks in half of their matches this season. Meanwhile, the ageing defense is often slow to response and conceded a massive 20 goals. The Toffees must regroup fast or else they could follow the path of Aston Villa and Sunderland to the Championship.
Watford had drawn plaudits with their attacking display in these early days of the league campaign. However, they have now lost two on the bounce with the narrow 1-0 home loss to Stoke City after a promising display in the 4-2 loss at the Stamford Bridge against Chelsea.
The home form of Hornets has been sloppy this season as 1 win came from their 5 matches so far. But they were lethal on the road with 3 wins and a draw picked up before the loss to Chelsea. The scoring from in those games is commendable as they netted exactly 2 goals in each of the 5 away games so far.
Everton vs Watford: Head-to-head
Everton lost just 1 of their last 9 meetings with Watford in all competitions, 6 wins and 2 draws.
The Blues are unbeaten at home in the four matches during the period with 3 wins and a draw.
