The Premier League continues with the Saturday 3pm kick-offs with Everton taking on Sheffield United as the betting tips continue at Goodison Park.
Everton Prediction – Can Everton claim third home win on trot?
Despite suffering a disappointing 3-1 reverse down on the south coast last weekend against Bournemouth, Everton return to their Goodison Park ground for this Saturday’s clash with newly-promoted Sheffield United in confident mood.
This is because Everton possess a 100% winning record on home turf having recorded back-to-back wins against Watford 1-0 and a 3-2 win against Wolves, and if only Everton manager, Marco Silva, could get his side to produce more consistent results away from home, his side would more than likely be serious challengers for a European spot later in the season.
Everton have picked up just 1 point from their 3 away matches so far in the Premier League which was on the opening day of the season with a 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace, but back-to-back losses at Aston Villa and Bournemouth have since followed.
Nevertheless, Everton hold a solid record at Goodison Park having been unbeaten in their last 7 matches, winning 6 of these which include notable victories against Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United and Wolves, while also holding Liverpool to a 0-0 draw in the merseyside derby.
Sheffield United Prediction – Can Sheffield United halt 3-match winless run?
Following 3 matches without a win in the top flight, Sheffield United manager, Chris Wilder, will be eager for his side to at least avoid defeat when he takes The Blades to merseyside to face an in-form Everton outfit at Goodison Park on Saturday.
Indeed, Sheffield United have picked up just 1 win so far upon their long-awaited return to the Premier League, which was a 1-0 home win over Crystal Palace, but the visitors have picked up useful points on the road so far this season at Bournemouth in a 1-1 draw and a highly entertaining 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge against Chelsea – the latter result was earned after being 2-0 down.
However, Goodison Park hasn’t been the most successful of hunting grounds for Sheffield United in recent times as The Blades have come a cropper in their last 3 visits to merseyside, losing 3-1, 2-0 and 4-2 respectively on their last 3 visits.
The concern for Wilder will be if his side can keep clean sheets on the road this season but so far this hasn’t been the case, and they’ll be up against a confident Everton side on home turf in this clash.
Key-Facts – Everton v Sheffield United
- Everton have won their last 6 home matches on the trot in the EPL
- Everton have kept 6 clean sheets out of their last 7 home matches in the EPL
- Sheffield United have lost their last 3 visits on the trot at Goodison Park
Betting Tips Verdict
Everton have impressed at home lately and they should edge the three points against Sheffield United here also.
