Everton FC vs. Southampton FC 7/9/20 - Premier League Picks & Predictions

Everton are set to play their next match at home at Goodison Park where they will host Southampton. 

It has been a modest season for Everton and that has resulted in the team being positioned in 11th spot on the ladder with 44 points from their 33 games. Everton are safe from relegation and it is unlikely they can achieve a spot in Europe next season. With that in mind, there is not a huge amount for Everton to achieve in the remaining games this season. Everton were beaten in their previous outing as they lost 1-0 away from home against Tottenham. It was a poor performance by Everton as they only managed 48% of the possession and only had 3 shots on goal in the entire match. The Toffees will look to turn things around in this match. 

On the other side of the coin, Southampton are currently 13th on the ladder with 43 points from their 33 games. Winning this match will see Southampton jump ahead of Everton on the ladder. Southampton have looked in decent touch as they produced a big performance in their previous match where they defeated Manchester City 1-0 at home. Southampton only had 26% of the possession but the team defended well and managed to score a goal which gave them all 3 points. The determination shown by Southampton was impressive and the team will be hoping to maintain its winning ways in this match also. 

Southampton hosted Everton earlier in the season at St Mary’s Stadium. It was a good match for Everton as the team managed to win 2-1 away from home. Tom Davies and Richarlison were the two players that scored for Everton.
