Wolverhampton-Everton is a match on the 20th day of the Premier League and is played Saturday at 4 p.m.: TV, lineups, predictions.
By now the ten penalty points that were imposed on Everton are water under the bridge, as the guests would currently be out of the relegation zone. That, however, is only one point away so the Liverpool blues need to come out of this away game with points. Without the Premier League ruling, Everton would be ahead of Wolves. The reality of the facts, however, says otherwise. And that, of course, will make the hosts play free of all thoughts of ranking.
Zero chances of being sucked in behind, very few of going for European qualification. Put that way, Wolverhampton’s season could be over here. And that’s more or less the case, since by now they will only be playing to try to take as much satisfaction as possible between now and the end of the year. Here, having a clear head could be a determining factor for this team, which might actually manage to enjoy itself.
Returning instead to what is the prediction for this match, we are not so convinced that Everton can come out with a defeat. In fact, far from it. At least a draw the guests could take it home.
The prediction
The match is sure to be lively, the two sides are in decent form anyway. The standings, however, put Everton in a position to have to score points at any cost. And at least one should take it home. Want to overdo it? Watch out for the outside shot. Difficult eh, but not impossible.
