Team News

Everton
Brighton
  • Everton could be without as many as six injured players for their opening Premier League fixture.
  • New signings Jake O'Brien, Tim Iroegbunam and Iliman Ndiaye could start here.
  • Brighton are set to be without the likes of Solly March, Bart Verbruggen, Evan Ferguson, Julio Enciso and Pervis Estupinan here.
  • Billy Gilmour, who has been heavily linked with a move to Napoli, is an injury doubt.

Prediction

  • Everton did extremely well to retain their Premier League status last season, given they were handed an eight-point deduction.
  • At Brighton, it's all change following the departure of Roberto De Zerbi, with 31-year-old Fabian Hurzeler the man tasked with replacing him in the hot seat.
  • Both sides will be quietly confident of picking up an opening day victory here, but we're backing the visiting side to claim all three points.
