Everton vs Arsenal Predictions

• Arsenal are winless in their last three road league games.
• The last two meetings between these sides have finished level.
• Everton have just two defeats in eight home league games.

Leaders Arsenal head to Everton

Arsenal have seen their lead at the top of the Premier League table cut to just two points over the last few weeks and they face a tough game against European challengers Everton in a late kick off on Saturday.

The Gunners needed a last-gasp own goal to see off bottom club Wolves in the capital last time out, while Everton have the top five in sight after four wins in their last six games.

Everton can deny Arsenal a win

Arsenal picked up a 3-0 win at Club Brugge in their last away games but in the Premier League they have just two points to show from their last three trips.

Everton have made a strong start to life at their new Hill Dickinson Stadium home and can extend Arsenal’s winless run domestically on the road by at least claiming a point.

Backing Everton to either win or draw in the double chance market is the pick here as David Moyes’ men have been tough to beat on home soil. The Merseyside outfit have just two defeats in eight home Premier League games, and they also have a reasonable recent record against Arsenal as both meetings between these sides finished all square last season.

Spoils could be shared

A win might be beyond Everton, however, as Arsenal are still picking up points even if their performance levels have dipped. The Gunners have just two defeats in 16 Premier League games this season and their defence remains strong, with just 10 goals conceded in 16 league games.

A 1-1 draw is the correct score prediction as both of these sides boast impressive defensive records. Everton concede on average just over a goal per-game at home and Arsenal ship just under a goal per-game away, so these sides can play out a 1-1 draw in their first meeting at this stadium after finishing with a 1-1 stalemate in their last ever Goodison Park clash last season.
