Match Preview:

The defeat at Manchester United last weekend ended a 3 game winning run for the Toffee Men but all were united in the belief that Everton had played a very decent game at Old Trafford and were unlucky not to get at least a point.

The good news for Everton is that the team have remained upbeat under the leadership of Marco Silva and will be favourites to get all three points when they return back to Goodison Park to take on Brighton.

Everton have lost just 1 game so far at home and have won their last two games here scoring 5 goals without conceding which has been significant. Those victories came against Fulham and Crystal Palace two teams who are in general on similar levels to Brighton.

Brighton are in the best form of their season so far and come into this game having won 3 games in a row. They have beaten some quality too in West Ham, Newcastle and Wolves. They could leapfrog Everton with a win and so their motivation to do well will be huge for this game.

However only 4 points have been won on their travels from the 14 point total that they have so far and Chris Hughton’s side have only won 1 game so far on the road. This includes losing 3 of their last five games.
