Our prediction for this EFL Cup match:
A place in the 4th round of the EFL Cup will be at stake when Everton welcome Southampton at their Goodison Park on Tuesday evening. The Toffees head into the match following a routine 3-0 victory over Fulham and they are surely brimming with confidence ahead of the visit of the Saints. Marco Silva’s men are a real force to be reckoned with at home and seeing that Southampton made a very slow start to the season, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed. A man to watch in the home side will be Gylfi Sigurdsson, who scored a brace in the 3-0 triumph over Slavisa Jokanovic’s troops at the weekend. In their last meeting at Goodison Park Everton recorded a 2-1 win over Southampton, which is yet another reason why we are tempted to put our money on Theo Walcott and Co.
Highlighted Player (Theo Walcott):

Theo James Walcott is an English football player with roots from Jamaica born on 16th of March 1989 in London. Walcott started his football career for AFC Newbury and after scoring over 100 goals in his first season Southampton signed the young Walcott. After 2 seasons playing for the Saints scoring 4 goals in 21games Arsenal transferred Walcott to London for approximately 12 million GBP where he signed a 1 million GBP per year contract by the age of 17.
Walcott is known for being a very fast right-winger but is able to play as a striker as well. Walcott can be used very effectively to set up a counter attack but is the type of offensive player that is very dependant on the rest of the team.
Despite his young age Walcott made his debut for the English national team in May 2006 and played for over 40 games in the national team already. One of Walcott’s biggest weaknesses are his height (only 173cm) and the fact he get’s injured very quickly. Walcott won the FA Cup in 2013/2014 and 2014/15 with Arsenal and the Community Shield in 2015. During the World Cup in 2014 Walcott was injured.
Highlighted Team (Southampton):

Southampton are an English football club that have been playing their home games at St Mary's Stadium since 2001. The Saints were based at The Dell in the past and the capacity of Southampton’s new stadium is 32,505. Southampton wear red and white striped shirts and the colour of the team’s away kit is navy and green.
The Saints have yet to win the Premier League trophy, but they did well to clinch the FA Cup title back in 1976, while participating in the final of the prestigious competition in 1900, 1902 and 2003. Southampton outplayed Manchester United in the 1976 FA Cup final and that is probably the club’s greatest victory ever.
The club are well known for their football academy and Real Madrid superstar Gareth Bale is one of the players who began their football carrier at the St. Mary’s Stadium outfit. Southampton’s fiercest rivals are Portsmouth and the two teams square off against each other in the South Coast Derby.
