BTTS: Yes

Wolves have scored in five of their last six games.

Wolves will be hoping to build on their first win of the Premier League season last time out when they take on Everton at the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Wednesday night. Indeed, the Wanderers finally got the monkey off of their back when they beat fellow relegation-threatened West Ham 3-0 at Molineux.

Meanwhile, Everton slumped to a disappointing 4-2 defeat to Brentford in front of their home supporters. The Toffees will be aiming for a much better showing come Wednesday, as they look to break back into the top half of the table.

Everton vs Wolves prediction: Wanderers to avoid defeat again?

Key stats

  • Everton have lost three of their last four home games.
  • Wolves have picked up four points in their last two league matches.
  • Everton have also lost three of their previous home H2Hs.

Correct score prediction: Everton 1-1 Wolves

Wolves are starting to build some confidence, while Everton have been dealt significant blows on home soil in recent games. With the hosts low in confidence, we feel as if they could slip up again here against the league's bottom side.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Everton favourites with bookmakers

  • HOME: 3/4 (1.75) – 57.1%
  • DRAW: 13/5 (3.60) – 27.8%
  • AWAY: 18/5 (4.60) – 21.7%

*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

As shown by the implied probabilities, Everton are still the big favourites with bookmakers to claim all three points on home soil. A draw can still be backed at just under 28%, while another Wolves victory is rated at just under 22%.

Most recent H2Hs: Wolves had decent record at Goodison…

As mentioned before, Everton had lost all of their previous three meetings against Wolves on home soil. However, it should be noted that they were at Goodison Park, and the Toffees are in a different stadium now, so perhaps their fortunes could change.

Mateus Mane is slowly but surely making a name for himself at Wolves. In difficult times, the youngster scored a brace to help his team win their first league match against West Ham, and will certainly be a threat to Everton.
