Southampton vs Everton

Southampton square off against the Evertonians here in what should be an intriguing encounter.

Before even looking at the prices, I immediately realised I wouldn't back a winner here. Everton seem to be moving further away from the top string sides with each passing game and it is difficult to know what to expect from them, soon it may be worth opposing them as seem to be underperforming more often than not.

What to make of them for this fixture? Why even bother to write a preview? Glad you asked.

Well for all there underwhelming I genuinely feel they can score here.

Southampton are far from rock solid due to their departures, Clyne has left and Bertrand isn't going to be involved here.

Pressure increasing on Everton and they will want at least a point here.

I went back and forth with this one but I think both teams to score is a superior option to the Home win.

Barkley, Lukaku, Kone and Co. should have enough to breach the Saints backline at least once.

Happy December!
