Command Analysis
Everton
EnglandCurrent form
The past season was not easy for Everton, as eight points were deducted during the championship. However, thanks to a strong finish, when they managed to score 13 points in the last six rounds, they managed to keep their place. Interestingly, information about new proceedings that could again threaten to deprive them of points has begun to appear in the press.
Sean Dyche 's men spent the pre-season quite inconsistently. In five matches played, they managed to win only against modest Preston (3:0). However, the 0:0 draw with Roma can clearly be counted as an asset.
Everton made some targeted reinforcements in the off-season, signing three players in different lines - Iliman Ndiaye, Tim Irogbounam and Jake O'Brien. Amadou Onana, Godfrey and Dobbin left the club.
Disqualifications and injuries
Forward Youssef Chermiti and defender Nathan Patterson will miss the first round due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- In Everton's last three matches, there has been exactly one goal scored in the first half.
- Everton are currently on a five-match home winning streak in the Premier League.
Estimated cast : Pickford - Young, Tarkovsky, O'Brien, Mykolenko - Gueye, Doucouré, Irogbounam - Harrison, Calvert-Lewin, McNeil
Brighton & Hove Albion
EnglandCurrent form
Last season, Brighton did not live up to expectations and betting tips, finishing only 11th in the table. Numerous injuries and the fact that they had to play in European competitions at the same time, and they do not have much experience of such performances, had an effect. As a result, the club's management decided not to extend the contract with Roberto de Zerbi . He was replaced by German specialist Fabian Hürzeler .
Brighton shone during the friendly matches. They managed to win all four friendlies, and in the last of them the Seagulls thrashed Villarreal with a score of 4:0.
Brighton have been active in the transfer market this summer, with the additions of Jankuba Minthe, Mats Wiffer, Bryan Gruda and Ibrahim Osman. A notable loss was the departure of midfielder Pascal Gross.
Disqualifications and injuries
Forwards Evan Ferguson and Solly March are in the infirmary, as is defender Pervis Estupiñan.
Interesting trends for betting
- Brighton have scored three or fewer goals in 12 of their last 13 league games.
- Brighton have not scored more than one goal in 13 consecutive Premier League games.
Probable line-up : Verbruggen - Veltman, van Hecke, Dank, Barco - Milner, Wiffer - Minte, Pedro, Mitoma - Welbeck.

1.87Bet Exact score 1:1
The two previous head-to-head matches ended with this score.
5.70Tip and bets
Everton remained with Sean Dyche at the helm, we will obviously continue to see defensive football in the team. Brighton has significantly updated its squad, a new coach has arrived, it is far from certain that it will be possible to immediately act brightly and effectively in attack. We believe that we should not expect many goals today, especially since in the two previous face-to-face matches more than two goals were not scored.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals with odds of 2.04
Bet on the outcome
Bookmakers found it difficult to name a favourite in the upcoming clash, which we also agree with. No one has any serious advantage in class in this pair. In the two previous matches between Everton and Brighton, they were unable to identify the strongest. We are expecting another draw.
The second bet is a draw with odds of 3.40
Bet on corners
Everton have not lost to Brighton on corners in six of their last seven home games. It's worth testing that trend today.
Prediction - Everton win on corners with Asian handicap (0) with odds of 1.80
