Player to watch: Beto
Beto's recent good form in front of goal means that the Guinea-Bissau international now joint-top scores for the Toffees in the Premier League this season with six goals.
Beto, who wasn't given a chance under Sean Dyche, has scored five goals in his last six matches across all competitions and looks much more confident and deadly in front of goal since Moyes came into the club.
The Everton striker has been transformed by his new manager
We're backing Beto to cause the Wolves' defence plenty of issues this weekend with his high work rate, pace and ability to run with the ball, not to mention his coolness to finish one-on-ones.
