Bet of the Day: Everton to keep it tight in Europa League home win
Published:
Ronald Koeman’s side got back on track at the weekend
Everton return to Goodison Park this evening looking to make it three wins from three in the past 10 days. The Toffees have arrested a run of six games without a victory and look well placed to beat Apollon Limassol tonight.
In Europe this season, Ronald Koeman’s men have an excellent home record. The Toffees have won two from two without conceding a goal. In-fact, Everton have kept four clean sheets from seven games on Merseyside so far this campaign.
Their opponents this evening struggle at keeping it tight at the back. The Cypriot side haven’t kept a clean sheet in seven matches. On top of that, four of their last five games have seen under 2.5 goals land.
With Everton’s attacking quality it should be another home win here. Coral’s Bet of the Day is Everton to win and under 2.5 goals at 13/5.
Calvert-Lewin to continue good form in Europe
Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s best form this season has come in cup competition. The 20-year-old opened his account against Ruzomberok and bagged a brace against Sunderland in the Carabao Cup last week.
He was disappointing in the Toffees’ last Group E clash against Atalanta. But he has the character and the quality to be able to get back on track here. He’s 19/20 to score anytime, while you can get 3/1 on the ex-Northampton man grabbing the opener.
Can the hosts keep a clean sheet?
As the Coral News Team have already touched upon, Everton have an excellent home defensive record so far this season. Meanwhile, their opponents Apollon required a 94th minute equaliser to scrape a point against Lyon in their last match in Group E.
Plus, in their only two Europa League campaigns to date, the Cypriots have failed to score in half of their trips away from home. It makes sense to back Everton to win to nil at 19/20. Where scorelines are concerned, Everton to win 2-0 appeals at 11/2.
