Fixture: Everton vs West Ham United
Date: Monday, 29 September 2025
Kick-off: 20:00 BST
Venue: Hill Dickinson Stadium
Match Prediction: Everton 2-1 West Ham United
Everton's recent form shows they can nick a win when it counts. They have a knack for grinding out results at home, as evidenced by their 2-0 win against Brighton.
West Ham, on the other hand, have been all over the shop, losing four out of their last five league games and have sacked Potter. If Everton can keep it tight at the back and use their home advantage, they might edge this one.
West Ham's attack could cause some problems, but their defence has been leaking goals left, right, and centre. Everton will need to be sharp up top, especially with Beto leading the line. If West Ham can't appoint a manager who can sort out their backline, Everton might just exploit those gaps. It's going to be a close one, but Everton's home form could be the deciding factor.
Everton's recent results show a mixed bag, but they've got a solid home record. That 2-0 win over Brighton shows they can be dangerous on home soil. The draw against Aston Villa proves they can hold their own against tough opposition. If they can keep that momentum going, they'll be a tough nut to crack for West Ham.
The loss to Liverpool might sting, but it's away from home where Everton have struggled.
At home, they've shown they can dig in and get results. With a bit of luck and some sharp finishing, Everton could well emerge victorious in this one.
Loss: 1-2 vs Liverpool (A)
Draw: 0-0 vs Aston Villa (H)
Win: 3-2 vs Wolverhampton Wanderers (A)
Win: 2-0 vs Brighton & Hove Albion (H)
Loss: 0-1 vs Leeds United (A)
West Ham's form has been all over the place lately. Four losses in their last five league games, including a heavy defeat to Chelsea, show they're struggling to find their feet. The win against Nottingham Forest was a bright spot, but it's been slim pickings otherwise. They'll need to tighten up at the back if they want to get anything from this game.
The Hammers have been leaking goals like a sieve, and that's a big worry. Their attack can be potent, but without a solid defence, they're always playing catch-up. If they can't sort out their defensive issues, Everton might just run riot at the Hill Dickinson.
Loss: 1-2 vs Crystal Palace (H)
Loss: 0-3 vs Tottenham Hotspur (H)
Win: 3-0 vs Nottingham Forest (A)
Loss: 1-5 vs Chelsea (H)
Loss: 0-3 vs Sunderland (A)
The head-to-head record between Everton and West Ham has been pretty even lately. Their last five league meetings have resulted in one win for Everton, two wins for West Ham, and two draws. The most recent clash ended in a 1-1 draw, showing how closely matched these teams can be. It's anyone's game when these two meet, and it's sure to be another tight affair.

Predicted lineup: Pickford, O'Brien, Keane, Tarkowski, Mykolenko, Gueye, Garner, Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish, Beto
Everton's predicted lineup shows a strong defensive core with Keane and Tarkowski at the back. In attack, Grealish, Beto and Ndiaye will be key to breaking down West Ham's shaky defence.
Predicted lineup: Areola, Walker-Peters, Kilman, Mavropanos, Diouf, Ward-Prowse, Fernandes, Bowen, Paquetá, Summerville, Füllkrug
West Ham's predicted lineup features Ward-Prowse and Paquetá in midfield, who will need to control the game if they're to stand a chance. At the back, Kilman and Mavropanos will have their work cut out against Everton's attacking threats.
Keane vs Füllkrug: A crucial battle at the back as Keane looks to keep Füllkrug quiet.
Paquetá vs Gueye: Gueye will need to keep tabs on Paquetá's creative flair in midfield.
Beto (Everton): His goal-scoring ability could be the difference in this tight contest.
Ward-Prowse (West Ham United): His set-piece expertise might be West Ham's best chance of scoring.
