Prediction: 2-1
Wolves
Goodison Park will host Wednesday’s Premier League game between Everton and Wolverhampton, the two bottom-table sides. The Toffees are eager to put an end to their five-game winless run, but bear in mind that they have suffered a loss in each of the previous three meetings with Wolverhampton in Liverpool. The likes of Tim Iroegbunam, James Garner, and Youssef Chermiti are out of contention with injuries for the home team.
The Wolves, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 4-2 loss to Bournemouth, but they will have to do it without the likes of Chiwome, Gonzalez, Kalajdzic, Mosquera, and Traore. Adding to their woes, right-back Nelson Semedo is sidelined through suspension. Pedro Lima has overcome his injury. As Everton will not have a better chance than this to get back on course, we predict that the visitors are going to return home with their hands empty.
Highlighted Player (Abdoulaye Doucouré):
French international midfielder Abdoulaye Doucour is a bundle of raw energy and a player who was voted Watford’s Player of the Season during the 2017/18 campaign. A deep-lying midfielder who takes part in play build-up from behind is a defensive asset who took time to blossom and announce himself at the international stage. He first burst to prominence at Ligue 1 side Rennes in 2012 after a year with the club’s B side and went on to play 75 league matches and score 12 goals.
Watford bought Doucoure in 2016 but sent him on loan to Granada, where he took part in 15 league matches. Determined to prove his worth in the Premier League, the Frenchman of Mali descent wasted no time in grabbing a starting spot under both Marco Silva and Javi Garcia, respectively, upon his return from Spain.
The total of 38 matches played along with 8 goals scored made Doucoure one of the most sought-after assets in the summer of 2018 but the player remained at Vicarage Road despite reported interest from Tottenham Hotspur.
Highlighted Team (Wolves):
Wolverhampton are a club that was originally known as St. Luke’s FC. The Wolves play in the Championship and they were founded in 1877. Molineux is the home ground of Wolverhampton and the capacity of the stadium is 31,700. Wolverhampton have won four FA Cup trophies (1893, 1908, 1949, 1960), with the team lifting the League Cup trophy in 1974 and 1980.
The colour of the club’s shirts is orange and they wear black shorts. The Wolves wear blue jerseys when playing away from home. Wolverhampton’s main rivals are West Bromwich Albion and they have been facing each other in the Black Country derby since 1888.
