Everton v Arsenal Team News

Both teams desperately need a victory here - Arsenal, in a crisis at 10^th and Everton, above relegation zone by mere points. It’s poised to be an entertaining clash given the clubs’ recent similarities. And problems. The two clubs recently dismissed their managers after a run of poor form.

Arsenal are with care-taker manager Freddie Ljungberg while this will be Carlo Ancelloti’s first Premier League game in charge after taking over from temporary manager Ferguson although he oversaw Everton getting knocked out in the EFL cup on penalties despite staging a draw after going 2 goals down.

A run of games against top sides in England has seen Everton drop points, including a 5-2 demolition by Liverpool, a result which prompted the sacking of former coach Marco Silva.

The Toffees will be looking to regain winning ways against an Arsenal side that has only won once in their most recent 8 outings across all competitions and if they play with the resilience that saw them get out with a point against United, they might just hack it. They seemed composed at defence and might just have enough to keep out the Gunner’s top marksman Aubameyang, who already has 11 goals for himself so far.

The Gunners are shaky coming into this encounter. The interim manager seems clueless and so do the London side. A ruthless Manchester City exposed the weaknesses in the Gunner’s side in a game where the Arsenal players seemed everywhere. They were lucky they only came out with 3.

That was part of the contribution to their dismal position in the league and things are thick at the Gunner’s camp. Interim manager has on his shoulders more weight than he can bear, probably, and there are rumors that another former Arsenal player and Pep Guardiola’s coaching protege Mikel Arteta is set to take charge.

Arsenal have conceded a goal in each of their most recent 12 matches and evidently, keeping a clean sheet is a headache. They are likely to continue with that conceding streak here.

Injured or Suspended Players:

Everton will be without M. Schneiderlin (Calf Injury), Theo Walcott (Calf Injury), Lucas Digne (Groin Injury) and J. Gbamin (Quadriceps).

For Arsenal, Kieran Tierney is doubtful after a had landing in the Man City game while H. Bellerin, Kolasinac, R. Holding and Xhaka are sidelined with varying injuries and will likely miss the trip to Goodison Park.

Everton vs Arsenal Predictions

First, a charged game is expected here. Both teams and coaches will be out for a statement and sharing points might be off the table for either. Given the gunners defensive deficiencies, they will likely concede but should also hurt the Toffees backline if their star man Auba will have his firing boots strapped well. Goals and more goals though Everton might just pip the sorry Gunners.
