Pick Details

Sport / league:: EPL
Event / fixture:: Everton vs. Watford
Event date: Sat, 13 May 2017 at 4:45 AM
Market:: Head-to-head
Tip:: Everton @ 1.49 (Matchbook)
Tip Result:: Win

Everton suffered a 3-0 defeat to Chelsea in their last home fixture but generally they have been incredibly strong at home. They are 11-2-0 over the last 12 months as the home favourite and the last six visitors ranked below them on the table suffered defeats by 2 goal margins or greater. You have to go back to November 2016 to find the last time Everton failed to win an EPL home fixture against a side ranked lower than them on the table.

Apart from an upset win over Arsenal, Watford have been brushed aside easily on the road by the top clubs. Their away form all season has been poor, with a 3-3-11 record. Watford are currently on a three-game losing streak having failed to find the back of the net in any of those fixtures. Goals are a reason they have struggled away from home. Watford have failed to score in their last five straight away games. Four of those five defeats were by 2-goal margins or greater.

Watford have flat-lined since their safety was secured and while Everton have little to play for themselves, they will be striving to win their final home game of the season.
