Everton v Ruzomberok Betting Preview – UEFA Europa League July 27th 7.45pm

Not a night that will be long remembered in the club history probably. The Toffees get some early pre-season competitive action in as they go in the third qualifying round of the Europa League. They have a pretty strong home record running at the moment in European games and should take this easily. Slovak opponents Ruzomberok managed to snap a long winless away streak in the last round to edge past the strangely named Odd to set up this tie.

Everton v Ruzomberok Betting Tips

So it is a return to European action for Everton after a two-year absence. They have received a favourable draw in this one as well so they can really ease themselves back into action. This will be Everton’s first competitive action of the summer. Everton are carrying good European home form with them having won five of their last six at Goodison Park in UEFA competition. So that’s pretty solid form there and while this will be their first ever game against Ruzomberok, Everton met Slovak opponents in the 1984/85 Cup Winners’ Cup, beating Senica 4-0 on aggregate. The Premier League side are heavy favourites for this one and they are as short as a price of 4/9 at bet365 to win to nil in this fixture so you are probably going to look for value elsewhere. In the bet365 correct score market, you have an Everton 2-0 option at 5/1 with the 3-0 result for them just a little longer at 9/2.

This really should be a bit of a canter for the Premier League side who made that big summer sale of Romelu Lukaku to Manchester United, while bringing back Wayne Rooney to Merseyside. It may be worth looking out for him in the bet365 live in-play betting market if he gets a run out here. In the half time/full time market at bet365 and Everton/Everton is as short as 2/5 for the game. Ružomberok won for the first time in seven European away games to eliminate Brann in the last round. They won the away game 2-0 but that was only after losing 1-0 at home in the first leg. It is not likely that the visitors are going to mount a huge challenge at Goodison Park in this one and there is a price of 4/11 on both teams not to score just to highlight that. The Slovaks started in the first qualifying round, so have been busy, having posted a W2 L2 record so far in their four games.

Everton v Ruzomberok Predictions

Everton to win: The Toffees should be comfortable in this one, but then it’s early ahead of the new season and therefore with all things said and done an Everton 2-0 correct score should be around the right mark for this one. The Slovak’s shouldn’t put up much of a fight.
