Toffees can confirm survivalBack-to-back wins over Nottingham Forest and arch-rivals Liverpool have alleviated Everton’s relegation worries, and they are eight points above the drop zone with four games remaining.
Another victory could be enough to ensure their Premier League status – providing Luton fail to win at Wolves – and they should feel confident of achieving the feat against Brentford.
The Bees have improved in recent weeks – with Thomas Frank’s men unbeaten in five – but their away form in 2024 has not been good, with five defeats and just two wins in eight league road trips.
Everton won the reverse fixture 3-1 in September and have won three on the bounce at Goodison, so with belief high in the blue half of Merseyside, expect the hosts to get the job done on Saturday.
Everton vs Brentford tip 1: Everton to win @ 13/10 with Paddy Power
Another shutout for Dyche’s defenceNot only have Everton won their last three at home but those victories have all been accompanied by clean sheets, undoubtedly to the delight of manager Sean Dyche.
Everton have conceded just 18 goals at Goodison all season – only the current top three of Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool have better goals-against records at home – and they will probably provide a stern test for the Bees frontline.
Brentford failed to score in the corresponding fixture last season, which finished 1-0 to Everton, and a similar scoreline could be in store again at the weekend.
Everton vs Brentford tip 2: One or both teams not to score @ 5/4 with Paddy Power
Fouls expected in midfield battleBoth Everton and Brentford are on the cusp of mathematical safety, so an intense battle in midfield is expected as the two look for any advantage to gain valuable points.
Abdoulaye Doucoure has committed more fouls (49) than any other Everton player in the league this season, while Bees midfielder Vitaly Janelt’s tally of 25 is the third highest among their ranks. We’re backing both to commit one or more fouls on Saturday.
Our bet builder is completed in the shots-on-target market and, after scoring the opener in the Merseyside derby, Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite could be eager to make his presence felt in the opposition penalty area.
The 21-year-old boasts the best shots-on-target percentage of any regular member of the Everton defence (28.6 per cent) and he will probably be one of the main targets from any corner or free kick on Saturday.
