Everton are currently languishing in the relegation zone managing to pick up just 7 points out of their first 8 Premier League matches and their next two games will be very crucial for the fate of the club this season.
Next up, the Toffees take on West Ham United at home and Marco Silva will be hoping to pick up all three points vs the Hammers. This though will be much easier said than done since Everton have lost their previous four league matches.
While West Ham United might have picked up only a single point in their past two matches but their away form has been inexplicable as they currently undefeated in their last 6 away matches in the league.
Manuel Pellegrini’s side are currently sitting on the top half of the table and many believe that they should be able to overcome the Everton test with considerable ease. But we feel the Toffees will come back from the international break with a much clearer mindset and should have enough to pick up all three points next weekend.
