Everton vs Watford: Preview and Predictions

Everton vs Watford
English Premier League
Date: Friday, 12th May 2017
Kick off at 19:45 UK/ 20:45 CET
Venue: Goodison Park.

Neither Everton nor Watford will come in the game in a good mood after losing consecutive Premier League fixtures.

The visitors have not yet secured the survival in the elite, while the hosts do not seem too overwhelmed about challenging the Europa League spots.

Everton

The Sunday’s away loss to the relegation-threatened Swansea City was the second on the bounce for the Toffees.

Moreover, Ronald Koeman’s side failed to find the back of the net in each of their last three Premier League outings.

This will most likely be the last match at Goodison for Romelu Lukaku who did not extend the contract with Everton.

Watford

The Hornets have not been in any better attacking shape as they also failed to score a single goal in three straight games.

However, Walter Mazzarri can be lucky to know that his team will most likely stay in the top flight of English football as they are six points above the line with only two games left to play.

Everton vs Watford: Head to head

The Toffees have been more than dominant winning 13 out of 19 head to head clashes with Watford.

However, the Hornets came out victorious in the first part of the season when they took a 3-2 win in a thriller at Vicarage Road Stadium.

Everton vs Watford: Prediction

Watford have been catastrophic on the road in the most recent period.

The team suffered five consecutive defeats away from Vicarage Road and they could not score a single goal during the process.

Everton will be massive favourites to bounce back and produce a decent farewell to their fans at Goodison.
