Everton Analysis
This is the first match in this edition of the home team’s competition, which ended the previous edition in 10th place. Curiously, this is a team that presents more positive results away than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses in away matches, with 16 goals scored and 17 conceded, against 3 wins, 5 draws and 7 home defeats, with 17 goals scored and 23 conceded. In their last match, for the Club Friendlies, they got an away loss against Manchester United by (4‑0). In the last 10 home matches Everton has a record of 2 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses. In 15 matches, they never managed to turn the score around in the 8 matches they conceded the first goal. In the last 20 home matches for all competitions there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 7 of their 20 goals between minutes (31’‑45′); conceded 11 of his 28 goals between minutes (76’‑90′).
Everton enters this round unmotivated after a defeat, by 4-0, in a friendly against Manchester United. It’s foreseeable that the home team will line up a 4-4-2, taking more advantage of the indoor game, where the four pieces that will compose the most central line of the field should be Abdoulaye Doucouré, Allan, Tom Davies and Gylfi Sigurdsson. On the attacking front, the home coach should be able to count on speedy strikers Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison. Coach Rafael Benítez will not be able to count on Cenk Tosun as he is currently injured.
Southampton Analysis
This will be the first game in this edition of the visiting team’s competition, which ended the previous edition in 15th place. This is a stronger team when they play at their stadium, as in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins and 10 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses in their stadium. The team comes to this match after a home loss against Athletic Club by (1‑3). In the last 10 away matches Southampton has won 4 and lost 6. The team has conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, so their defense needs to improve, but their offense has been scoring regularly, as managed to achieve in 7 of the last 10 games. In 15 matches, they have turned the score around in 3 of the 8 matches they have conceded the first goal.
Southampton enters this first round of the Premier League unmotivated after a defeat, by 1-3, in a friendly against Atlético de Bilbao. Contrary to the “enemy” of this round, Southampton usually plays in a 4-4-2, favoring a more offensive game, where the two most advanced men should be Danny Ings and Takumi Minamino. The visiting team usually plays football in counterattacks, at times disorganized, trying to make the most of some type of opponent’s failure. Coach Ralph Hasenhuttl is likely to have only one absence for this round: Will Smallbone is still in his recovery period.
