Match Thread AFC Bournemouth v Everton - Waffle, Match Report, MotM Poll and more waffle

[mahermi1]

Would play Gomes instead of Gueye, we need a bit more composure on the ball, more creation.

Incidentally - just read there that Dyche has won more games as a manager against Bournemouth that anyone else apparently. Hopefully a good omen for today.

In fact 100% win rate with us.

Still not confident at all

 

[nsno-chris]

3-1 win

Think it’ll be a repeat of the Brighton game last year; they’ll have the ball A LOT and we’ll snatch and grab

More confident away than I am at home

 

[JohnRoss23]

Just don't lose please. Need to start winning though. Do or die!!!

I’ve looked at the last 4 league games for Everton. These were two home games (C Palace and W Ham) and away at Brighton and Man U. Everton gained 2 points although the XGs suggested this was an unfair reflection, with 6 being more likely with Everton being dominant in the home games. Everton have scored 3 goals and conceded 7 with xG estimating 6.37 goals with 6.72 conceded highlighting a problem in scoring.



Everton have had 3 different goal scorers (Beto, Branthwaite and Onana with one each). Garner and McNeil have one assist each.

The average positions of the starting line-ups are below. In the away game at Brighton the team sat back (and only had an xG of 0.29) whereas the team was more attacking against Man Utd, being closer to the formations for the home games.



The following graph compares summary stats of Everton and AFCB over the last 4 games. On the underlying stats AFCB are doing well offensively with more goal attempts, big chances, xG and goals scored, but with Everton having the better stats defensively in particular for big chances conceded.




Everton have marginally more percentage possession at 50%, with AFCB at 45%. Surprisingly for a Dyche-managed team Everton are conceding a high proportion of chances from set pieces.

Ok, now it’s a must win

Please can we win! It's been so long now!

How about a DCL goal as well or is that asking too much

 

[Mr PEN86]

Catching a flight so will be mid-air when the game's on. Really want to see Coleman back in at RB. Need these 3pts desperately. Hopefully not watching brings us a bit of luck. UTFT

Is it me or does Myko always come back from international duty injured?

I've got to admit, its been a very peaceful 3 weeks without our beloved blues!

But here we go again. Come on lads just get the win. And a Calvert-Lewin goal with it would be excellent

 

[GoldenToffee]

I await your next prediction!

If you read the thread I've cleverly dotted about 23 different predictions so that I can hopefully quote one of them later and be right.

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

No one will convince me that Ben Godfrey is a better left back than Mackenzie Hunt
