On Friday, starting with 17:30, the Everton – West Ham match will be played, within the 17th round of the Premier League. Everton is undefeated in the last 4 direct matches and won 4-1 the most recent duel, in the eighth round of the English League Cup, played in Liverpool on September 30, 2020.
Everton is going through a fantastic period with Carlo Ancelotti, ticking the victories on the line in the last 4 stages of the Premier League. The last victim was Sheffield United, a precious 1-0 on the field of the last ranked. Everton were due to play a game with Manchester City on Monday night, but the dispute was postponed due to coronavirus infections in the “citizens” group. The “candies” got 29 points in 15 stages and are tied with Leicester, which has a more disputed match.
West Ham did not have a break and will play on “Goodison Park” immediately after the trip with Southampton (0-0), and David Moyes does not have time to breathe. The “hammers” are currently without worries in the middle of the standings, but teams like Leeds, Wolverhampton or Arsenal can put pressure on the Londoners. West Ham proposes a defensive game on the road, with long balls, deliberately ceding possession of the opponent, and in front of Everton Moyes will certainly use the same tactics.
