Everton vs West Ham Preview and Team News
Everton Team News
Everton suffered a 0-2 League Cup defeat away to Wolves in their recent outing, following a 1-2 loss in the Merseyside derby against Liverpool at Anfield.
However, before that, they played out a goalless draw at home against Aston Villa and secured an impressive 3-2 victory at Molineux against Wolves in the Premier League. They also beat Brighton 2-0 in the first official match on their new home ground.
Under David Moyes, Everton prioritize defensive shape above all else. They remain compact, deny space between the lines, and try to press high, which has worked excellently in recent Premier League fixtures.

In the 4-4-2 formation, they’ve pressed opponents effectively with a quick transition into attack, with Jack Grealish and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall demonstrating great cohesion.
The loan signing of Grealish has proved to be a fantastic move, providing a level of chance creation that was sorely lacking. He offers a big threat from the left, capable of both cutting inside and delivering pinpoint crosses for Beto or Thierno Barry.
The transfer of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has also paid off, thanks to his ability to combine effectively with Grealish and open up in advanced zones. He’s also one of the key players in initiating the team’s high-energy pressing.

On the injury front, Jarrad Branthwaite remains unavailable due to a hamstring issue and hasn’t featured yet this season. Merlin Rohl has picked up a minor hip/groin knock in training, though Moyes doesn’t expect it to be serious.
Everton predicted lineup vs West Ham (4-2-3-1): Pickford; Patterson, Tarkowski, Kean, Mykolenko; Gueye, Garner; Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye, Grealish; Beto.
West Ham Team News
West Ham are still in crisis, with just one win in their last several fixtures across all competitions. Graham Potter is under big pressure, with reports circulating that the board is already sounding out potential replacements.
The Hammers most recently suffered a 1-2 home defeat to Crystal Palace, a result that followed a 0-3 loss to Tottenham, also at the London Stadium. Recent League Cup exit to Wolves (2-3) and a heavy 1-5 defeat to Chelsea are still fresh in memory. The only win came against Nottingham Forest (3-0) in the third round.
Graham Potter’s tactical philosophy, which emphasizes patient build-up play, has failed to deliver results. The team appear defensively chaotic and vulnerable, especially inside their own box.

Potter has switched from a 3-4-2-1 formation to a 4-2-3-1, which worked well against Forest, especially with the substitutions of Callum Wilson and Crysencio Summerville following injuries. In the defensive phase, they tried to play with a 4-4-2 shape, which also proved effective in that encounter. However, in the following matches, their defensive mistakes kept resurfacing.
West Ham have conceded a big number of goals from crosses and set pieces, a weakness that a coach like David Moyes must be acutely aware of and eager to exploit.

The responsibility for creativity largely rests on the shoulders of Lucas Paquetá and captain Jarrod Bowen. Although both players have the individual talent to turn a game around in an instant, the team’s heavy reliance on them has made their attacking patterns predictable.
West Ham must cope without Tomáš Souček, who is suspended after a recent red card. Aaron Wan-Bissaka remains sidelined with an abdominal issue, having missed the last two outings. Niclas Füllkrug is still out with muscular problems and is expected to be unavailable for several weeks.
West Ham predicted lineup vs Everton (4-2-3-1): Hermansen; Walker-Peters, Mavropanos, Kilman, Diouf; Ward-Prowse, Fernandes; Bowen, Paquetá, Summerville; Wilson.
Everton vs West Ham Prediction
- Pick: Everton to win
- Odds: -134 (20Bet)
- Score prediction: Everton 2-1 West Ham
The most obvious mismatch is on set pieces. Everton have regularly created a threat from dead-ball situations, with James Tarkowski and Michael Keane acting as main aerial targets. West Ham, meanwhile, have conceded a league-high seven goals from corners this season – a shocking statistic.
Every corner and wide free-kick that Everton win will create a moment of extreme danger for the visitors. This aspect could determine the outcome of the match. I expect the home side to systematically exploit their opponents’ weaknesses.
Everton vs West Ham Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Total Over 1.5 Goals
- Odds: -323 (20Bet)
Everton tend to play proactively at home, often attacking with numerous players and applying pressure. This approach is likely to force mistakes from West Ham’s players, allowing the Toffees to create scoring opportunities from quick transitions from defense to attack.
At the same time, Potter’s team should find space for quick counterattacks, particularly behind Everton’s midfielders and fullbacks. Therefore, it’s reasonable to expect more than one goal in this match.
