Evertoin have not been able to match their potential so far in the season, the more reason they head to this game placed in the bottom half but being 19 points ahead of their day’s opponents, Huddersfield, says all about the gulf between the two sides and facing the weakest team in the Premier League so far will boost Everton’s confidence. This is a match they should consider winnable and to face a side without a goal in the last three outings should add to Everton’s placing as favorites in this game. Huddersfield have not won any of their last 11 matches; 10 of those have ended in losses and one a draw. They have not scored in four of their last five matches and have lost each of their last five home matches in the Premier League. This should be the most winnable game for Huddersfield, looking at the games ahead of them and they will need to put their best foot forward here. Huddersfield have managed just two wins in the season, one away and one at home; they take on an Everton side that has also struggled away from home, with just two wins in the last 12 away games. In the Premier League, away from home, Everton have managed just one win in the last seven matches and have also kept one clean sheet in the process. Everton are unbeaten in eight matches against Huddersfield and they have scored two or more against Huddersfield in five of the last seven meetings. In 58 meetings in total, Huddersfield have 20 wins and Everton 24.

Everton last win away was on Boxing Day 1-5 against Burnley. I am taking Everton to win this match tonight.
Everton were unlucky to go out of the FA Cup at the weekend the way they did because Millwall's equaliser would not have stood if there was VAR at The Den. But the circumstances behind that defeat do not hide the fact the Toffees are struggling, and another slip-up here is only going to increase the pressure on manager Marco Silva. This is not a great time to play Huddersfield either, despite their awful run that has seen them take only one point from their past 10 games. New Terriers boss Jan Siewert has had a bit of time to work with his players and you just know there is going to be a reaction from them. Normally, you do get that bounce when a new manager takes charge and although it is a big call to say Huddersfield will score twice - because they have only managed five goals at home all season - it just would not surprise me to see them do it. With Huddersfield being 10 points from safety, they are so far adrift Siewert can afford to have a real go at Everton. His side have got nothing to lose now.
