Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Wolverhampton Wanderers
Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-1
Everton
Wolverhampton play host to Everton at their Molineux Stadium on their return to the Premier League. The Wolves did well to beat Villarreal 2-1 in their last warm-up game, with the team putting an end to their three-match winless run. The newcomers regained a much-needed confidence and given Everton’s poor form in pre-season, we predict that the hosts are going to grab something from Saturday’s football match. The Toffees have been struggling at the back of late, but seeing that coach Marco Silva is going to field the best possible side against Wolverhampton, share of spoils is on the horizon. Wayne Rooney is no longer part of the Goodison Park outfit, but summer signing Richarlison is likely to prove a handful for the opposition back-line. Anyhow, a close encounter is on the cards and we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw.

Highlighted Player (Joao Moutinho):
A versatile midfielder who can operate as a defensive or attacking midfielder, as well as on either flank, Moutinho is a Portugal international playing for AS Monaco. The experienced 30-year-old footballer started his career with Sporting, but moved to great rivals Porto in 2010. Having won 12 major titles between the two clubs combined, Moutinho moved to Monaco in 2013.
A full Portugal international at the age of 18, Moutinho is a regular call-up since the 2006 FIFA World Cup. The 30-year-old was a part of Portugal’s historic success in France this summer when Fernando Santos men lifted their first-ever continental trophy. Despite being a first-team regular with his club AS Monaco, Moutinho has been regularly linked with a move to Serie A and was reportedly offered to Napoli and AC Milan during the summer of 2016.
AS Roma have also expressed their interest in signing the versatile midfielder, but Monaco opted to stay with the club and help Monaco with their UEFA Champions League challenge.
Highlighted Team (Everton):
Everton are one of the two Merseyside giants that were formed back in 1878, with the club holding a long-standing rivalry with Liverpool. Everton have participated in the English top flight for a record 113 seasons, with the team competing in the English second tier in just four campaigns.
The Toffees play their home matches at Goodison Park, the stadium that was opened in 1892. Everton have won the national championship nine times, with the team winning their last domestic trophy back in 1987.
The Toffees have clinched five FA Cup trophies as well and it has to be noted that a victory over Manchester United in the 1994/1995 FA Cup final helped the team win their last title in the prestigious competition. Everton and Liverpool face each other in the Merseyside derby and the clash between the two local rivals has been called the Merseyside derby since 1955.
In the 2015/2016 Premier League campaign Everton were hammered by Liverpool (0-4) at Anfield.
