Everton vs Wolves Preview
- Tournament: Premier League
- Date: Wednesday, Dec 04
- Kick-off Time: 07:30 pm GMT
- Venue: Goodison Park, England
The Toffees will host Wolves in their 14th game of the 2024/25 Premier League season at Goodison Park. The Merseyside giants will be looking to get their form back on track following their disappointing defeat to Man United over the weekend.
Hosts Everton are one of the struggling squads in the Premier League this season who are winless in their last five outings in the league. Sean Dyche’s did not have a great start to the new campaign and are searching for their third clean sheet in the league. They just sit two points above the relegation zone and things are not looking bright for the Everton boss
Meanwhile, Gary O’Neil’s men have managed only two wins in their last 13 games in the Premier League and are sitting in the relegation zone. Wolves are currently sitting 18th in the Premier League standings and are coming off a 4-2 defeat to AFC Bournemouth in their last game. They should be able to take advantage of Everton’s defensive frailties.

Key Players to Watch in Everton vs Wolves
Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Everton)
Everton forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin is one of the longest-serving players in the current Everton squad and his contract with the club expires at the end of this season. But he has only two goals and one assist to show in 12 Premier League matches this season.
Matheus Cunha (Wolves)
The Brazilian attacker has made a fine start to his 2024/25 campaign scoring seven goals in 13 Premier League appearances so far. Cunha who holds a contract until the summer of 2027 has been a rare shining light for Gary O’Neil’s side.

The Toffees have narrowly escaped relegation in the last three seasons and we can witness a similar story this season.
