Everton will be looking to extend their unbeaten start to the Premier League campaign when they take on Wolves in the EFL Cup. The Toffees have big ambitions in the competition and will be eager to bounce back from a goalless draw with Tottenham, a game in which they registered 1.11 xG. Jack Grealish is pushing for a start after coming off the bench at the weekend, while Christian Norgaard remains in the recovery room. Everton have won 40% of their last 10 matches, scoring 1.60 goals per game and conceding exactly 1.00 on average.
Wolves, meanwhile, are determined to return to the Premier League and arrive on the back of a 1-0 victory over Sheffield United, with Raul Jimenez scoring a late winner. The visitors have won 50% of their last 10 games and have been particularly dangerous in attack, averaging 2.10 goals per match while failing to score in none of those fixtures. Rafiki Said remains injured, while Yerson Mosquera is a major doubt. With both sides capable of scoring, an entertaining cup tie could be on the cards.
As home advantage and Premier League quality give the Toffees the edge, we are tempted to bet on Home Win, alongside Everton to Qualify and Over 1.5 goals (Wolves have averaged 3.40 total goals per game across their last 10 matches).
This EFL Cup match will be played on Wednesday 16 September 2026 at 19:45.
