Match Preview

There will be immediate pressure on David Moyes when he takes charge of Everton for the first time since returning to the club on Wednesday. The Toffees come into the midweek round sitting 16th in the overall standings, and they are just one point clear of the relegation places. Meanwhile, Everton have suffered defeats in their last two.

Aston Villa have endured mixed fortunes over the festive period, winning just once across their last three Premier League matches. However, their win did arrive in their latest league outing after producing a battling display to edge out Leicester City at Villa Park.

However, the Toffees will need to overcome an extremely poor record in this fixture if they are to claim maximum points. Everton are winless in their last eleven against Villa, losing eight times across that period. The Villa are also unbeaten in their last five away matches against the Toffees.

Everton’s struggles have been at the top end of the field this season, with only Southampton scoring fewer goals. But, defeats have dried up based on their recent stats, as the Toffees have suffered just four defeats in their last 15 in the Premier League.

Everton vs. Aston Villa Picks

A chance is given to the points being shared on Wednesday. The Villa have lost five on the bounce away from home, while Everton have played out eight draws in their last 15 outings in the English top-flight.
