Everton vs Arsenal prediction
After barely surviving the chop last season, Everton have found themselves back in the drop zone to start this season. If three straight defeats while not scoring a single goal had started piling pressure on Sean Dyche, a 2-2 draw at newly promoted Sheffield United before the international break did him no favors. He is the bookmakers’ favorite as the next to face the axe in a season that has already claimed the scalp of 4 top-flight EPL managers. The visit of an in-form Arsenal isn’t the most ideal under the circumstances but Dyche will draw some inspiration from the Toffees’ recent performances against the Gunners including a 1-0 home win last season that came right in the middle of another terrible run of form.
Arsenal went into the break on a high following their dramatic 3-1 victory over bitter foes Manchester United. An epic battle that seemed to be headed to a stalemate was sparked to life with a flurry of events right at the end – a disallowed Man United goal in the 87th minute for offside, followed by injury-time goals by the Gunners that led to wild celebrations at the Emirates. Arteta has struggled against the hosts in his tenure. His 43% win-loss rate against them is second-worse only to Man City. He will be looking to reverse that trend here.
Taking a look at our Everton v Arsenal predictions, we anticipate a close encounter here. Everton will be keen to get themselves out of the hole they have dug themselves in, while the Gunners will be looking to keep pace with Man City who have seemingly thrown the gauntlet for all challengers and pretenders to the title. That said, we feel the visitors have all they need to snatch a narrow win here

Our Everton vs Arsenal predictions
According to the statistics and the odds of the bookmakers, we suggest the following tips:
Prediction 1: Correct Score: 0-2
Arsenal finished last season as the best away team. They have picked that up promptly this season with a 1-0 win over Crystal Place in their only road game this season. The home team have struggled to score this season, with just two goals in their opening 4 games of the season, both of which came against fellow strugglers newcomers Sheffield United. Arsenal certainly present a much tougher quality of opposition from what they have faced. We are expecting a tight game here but we feel Arsenal have that little bit of extra quality to unlock a stubborn Everton defence that will be determined to keep things compact at the back. The Gunners’ attack has been fluid, scoring at least twice in all but 1 game this season. We are backing them to collect all three points on offer as they continue chasing Man City on the table. As such we are backing Arsenal to win with a correct score of 0-2 with the best prices for this at 1xBet.

Prediction 2: Over 3.5 Bookings
Desperation has already set in at the Everton camp. After battling relegation last season, they were hoping for a reprieve to start the season but far from it, they have found themselves right in the thick of it. If they can get anything from this game, it would be a huge motivator for them and they will therefore give all they have here. Meetings between these two teams at Goodison Park have always been feisty and this will be no different given the stakes at play already this early into the season for both teams. The last 7 straight meetings between them have witnessed at least 4 bookings and we are backing the same to recur here with fantastic prices for this offered by Melbet.

Prediction 3: Arsenal Over 5.5 Shots on Target
Arsenal’s attack has not lost a beat. They have been fluid to start the season with eye-catching performances from the likes of Odegaard, Saka and even the youngsters Nketiah and Martinelli. Throw in Jesus back into this potent mix and the outcome is pretty straight-forward. The Gunners as they are prone to do will dominate possession and launch waves of attacks against an Everton that will be happy to soak in the raids and strike back on counters. For our final Everton vs Arsenal prediction, we therefore Arsenal to have at least 6 shots on target in this match @ 1.83 at Melbet.
