Everton vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Prediction
The hosts are winless in their last five games, failing to score in four games in that period, and will look to improve upon that record. They have failed to score in three of their last six league meetings against Wolves, which is a cause for concern.
Sean Dyche will be without the services of James Garner and Tim Iroegbunam due to injuries. Armando Broja is in contention to start here and Youssef Chermiti is a major doubt. Bamidele Alli is also struggling with match fitness.
Wolves suffered their first league loss after four games last week and will look to bounce back here. They have won four of their last six away games in this fixture, and will look to build on that record. They are unbeaten in their last two away games, scoring six goals.
Santiago Bueno was on the bench against Bournemouth and is likely to return to the starting XI here. Pablo Sarabia should start from the bench. Nelson Semedo will serve a suspension due to yellow card accumulation.
Everton have a good recent home form and should be able to hold the visitors to a low-scoring draw.
