Everton's game against Manchester City, scheduled for Monday night, has been postponed due to coronavirus problems facing the Manchester team. So the "Candies" had extra time to prepare for the match that will allow them to continue the winning streak of four games that began with the triumph over Chelsea with 1-0. In the previous game they won 0-1 at the home of Sheffield, with a goal by Sigurdsson late in the match (80 '), without impressing with its performance for most of the match. There are no new injuries for Carlo Ancelotti's team who confirmed in the press conference that Rodriguez is out. Midfielders Alan and Delph remain in the pits with Dean (defender). Richardson returns as everything shows after the game in Sheffield. The remarkable thing is that they remain undefeated in 25 of the last 28 matches against West Ham.
The "Hammers" hosted, on Tuesday afternoon, in St. Mary, Southampton with the game remaining a draw and without a goal at 0-0. West Ham came up with several changes to the starting lineup, something that was clearly visible on the pitch as the players did not have chemistry with each other. Despite their good start in the championship, they have four games to taste the joy of victory and have dropped to 10th place in the standings. The highlight of the match is that the former coach of Everton and now of West Ham has four defeats in an equal number of returns to Goodison Park. Moyes' only problem today is Arthur Mazuaku, and he will be in the starting line-up for center-back Craig Dawson after his excellent performance against Southampton. Benrahma, Bowen and Koufal return to the starting lineup.
Everton want to keep in touch with the top and in good spirits with the most freshness and the best form from West Ham will get the New Year's three-pointer at home. Bet on 1 at odds of 2.22 on Stoiximan.
