The Premier League is back in action with another round of important fixtures this weekend as Everton lock horns with David Moyes' West Ham United at London Stadium on Sunday.
West Ham United vs Everton Preview
West Ham United are currently in eighth place in the Premier League standings and have exceeded expectations so far this season. The Hammers suffered a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur last month and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Everton, on the other hand, are in 17th place in the league table at the moment and have endured a dismal season. The Toffees crashed out of the FA Cup quarterfinals after a 4-0 defeat against Crystal Palace in their previous game and cannot afford another debacle this weekend.
