Why you should back Wolverhampton

The Wolverhampton attack is led by Hwang Hee-chan and Raul Jimenez, and it faces a Toffees defense that melted down last Saturday. Hwang has four goals and Jimenez has a goal and an assist, while Adama Traore's strength also could trouble Everton. Wolves should be able to dictate the pace. They hold the ball 49.9 percent of the time, ranking in the middle of the pack in the Premier League, while Everton has the third-lowest possession percentage at 41.3.

Midfielders Joao Moutinho and Ruben Neves have the skill to find the strikers on through balls against an Everton back line that has yielded 14 goals. The Toffees also have worn down late, conceding nine goals in the final 30 minutes of matches and yielding four in the final 15 minutes against Watford. 

Why you should back Everton

Everton (4-2-3) started the season on a five-game unbeaten run and will be under pressure from manager Rafa Benitez to return to that form and rebound from the loss to Watford. In the last seven matches after conceding at least three goals under Benitez, the Toffees haven't allowed more than one and have two clean sheets. The expected return of Richarlison (two goals, one assist) will boost an attack that has three goals during its three-game winless streak.

Demarai Gray and Andros Townsend both have three goals and two assists. That trio has a lot of pace and could test Wolverhampton's back line. Wolves have kept one clean sheet in league play this season, and the Toffees have scored 15 goals. Richarlison scored the lone goal in the most recent meeting, at Goodison Park in May, as Everton kept 59 percent possession. Everton had a 29-14 advantage in shots in the two meetings last season.
