The past few matches have not borne the best of outcomes for both Everton and West Ham United. They will be facing off in the first match of the weekend after the international week and will each be hoping to improve on losses suffered in their last outings. While West Ham United have not won in their last three matches, Everton are on a two – game winless run. West Ham have one win in their last five outings but they have also picked two draws. Everton on the other hand have four losses in their last five matches. In 10 matches this season, Everton have managed just three clean sheets, signaling a defensive concern as they go to this match. However, they have scored in six of the 10 and will be looking to make it seven in 11 when West Ham comes calling. Each of the two sides has posted two wins in the last four meetings and three of the four matches have posted over 2.5 goals. In their last two Premier League matches played at home, Everton have lost while two of their last three at home have produced over 2.5 goals. Save for the two losses in the recent home matches. Everton have a decent run, with six clean sheets and six wins in the last nine league matches at home. Everton’s defensive issues will further be complicated by the fact that key defender Seamus Coleman is suspended for this clash.

West Ham United, on the other hand, have taken the lead in their last two matches but went on to drop points. Their most recent match was against Crystal Palace, which they lost 2-1 after having taken the lead and earlier they drew 2-2 with Bournemouth after also taking the lead in the game. This is one aspect they will really have to address if they intend to pick a first win in four matches. In the last three matches, West Ham have conceded eight goals and facing an Everton side that has scored in three of their four league games this season means they have a big task ahead. West Ham have scored in six of their last seven league matches and while they have conceded four in their last two matches, they had three straight clean sheets prior to that. They have scored in all but one of their four away league games this season and are unbeaten in the four, though with just one win.
