Everton vs Arsenal Match Analysis & Prediction

04/02/2023 3:30 pm

Taking charge of Everton for the first time, Sean Dyche faces a baptism of fire as he leads his side into Saturday’s Premier League showdown with leaders Arsenal.
Eighteen places and 35 points separate the two sides at opposite ends of the table, and the Gunners aim to extend their lead at the summit to eight points.
Everton has appointed Sean Dyche as their new manager after sacking Frank Lampard last week.
The club’s decision to replace the former Chelsea midfielder with the Burnley manager has proven unpopular with fans, who have been frustrated with their team’s performances for some time.
Jarrod Bowen scored a match-winning brace in Everton’s 2-0 loss to West Ham United on Sunday, which led to Lampard’s dismissal.
Despite some bright moments from the Gunners and an effervescent Leandro Trossard, Mikel Arteta could not mastermind a way through his former club’s staunchdefense, and a striker’s finish from Nathan Ake sealed a 1-0 win for Manchester City.
With only the Premier League and Europa League to focus on for the remainder of the campaign. Some Gooners have welcomed their early cup eliminations as they endeavor to steer eight points clear of Man City – who do not play until Sunday against Tottenham Hotspur – at the summit.

Everton Team News
Everton manager Sean Dyche will be without the services of Andros Townsend, Nathan Patterson, and Michael Keane for his first game in charge. James Garner and Ben Godfrey will also need to be assessed.
Dyche is debating whether to revert to his traditional 4-4-2 setup from his Burnley days or go with a defense-heavy formation in hopes of quelling league leaders Manchester City.
