Everton vs Brentford Predictions

• Everton’s games have produced a league-low 40 goals this season.
• Under 2.5 goals has landed in five of Brentford’s last six away games.

Goals at a premium at Hill Dickinson Stadium

Just two points and one position separate these sides in the Premier League table following the midweek round of fixtures, but Everton may increase that gap when they host the Bees on Saturday.

The Toffees have lost just three of their last nine games to move into eighth place, and only three teams head into 2026 with a better defensive record than David Moyes’ side.

A Premier League-low 40 goals have been scored in Everton’s 19 matches, with eight of their last ten outings featuring fewer than three goals.

Toffees can edge it

Brentford have played their part in a few thrillers this season, but they were held to a goalless draw by Tottenham on New Year’s Day, and six of their last seven games have gone under 2.5 goals.

They have lost five of their last six away games and failed to score in four of those. With five of them going under 2.5 goals, backing a low-scoring affair appeals, alongside a tight Everton win.

The Bees have conceded twice in each of these five defeats, but Everton are far from a prolific outfit and may be limited to a single goal, opening the door for a 1-0 correct score prediction.
