2nd game in the English Premier League on Saturday night is going to be between Everton and Brentford. After 26 games, Everton has 5 wins, 7 draws, 14 losses, a total of 22 points and 18th place which would mean relegation while Brentford has 9 wins, 11 draws, and 4 losses in 24 games, with a total of 38 points and 9th place. In this game, I'm predicting that Brentford won't lose.

Everton has been terrible in the last couple of games. Last week, Everton wasn't able to beat Nottingham Forrest (2:2) although they were favorites. Before that, Everton was crushed by Arsenal on the road (0:4) and they lost to Aston Villa at home (0:2). At home this season, Everton has 4 wins and 2 draws in 13 games, with a total of 11 goals scored (tied for 2nd worst) and 16 conceded. Per xG, Everton is expected to score 1.24 goals at home (6th worst) and concede 1.62 (5th worst).

Brentford has been somehow stable because the team hasn't lost a single game in the Premier League since the restart of the season! Last week, Brentford beat Fulham 3:2 at home but prior to that drew against Crystal Palace (1:1) and Arsenal (1:1). On the road this season, Brentford has 2 wins and 6 draws in 11 games, with a total of 13 goals scored and 19 conceded. Per xG, Brentford is expected to score 1.26 goals on the road and concede 1.97.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin is a question mark for Everton as he has missed the last 5 games. Vitalii Mykolenko didn't play last week because of illness while Andros Townsend and Nathan Patterson remain out injured. As for Brentford, there are no new injuries as backup goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha is the only player currently out.

In the 1st meeting of the season, both teams earned a point (1:1) but Brentford had an xG of 2.15 while Everton had 1.07. Before that, Brentford had 2 wins in 4 meetings while one game ended with a draw. Brentford is very close to the TOP6 which would guarantee a place in the European tournaments. Yes, Everton beat Arsenal at home but the other 3 wins have been against poor teams - Crystal Palace, West Ham and Leeds United. Brentford is much better team and should get the win or at least a point.

周六晚上英超联赛的第 2 场比赛将在埃弗顿和布伦特福德之间进行。26轮过后，埃弗顿5胜7平14负积22分，保级第18名；布伦特福德24轮战绩9胜11平4负，积38分保级。第 9 名。在这场比赛中，我预测布伦特福德不败。

埃弗顿在过去几场比赛中表现糟糕。上周，埃弗顿未能击败诺丁汉福雷斯特（2:2），尽管他们是夺冠热门。在此之前，埃弗顿在客场被阿森纳（0:4）碾压，主场不敌阿斯顿维拉（0:2）。本赛季在主场，埃弗顿13场比赛4胜2平，共打进11球（并列倒数第2）失16球。根据 xG，埃弗顿预计将在主场进 1.24 个球（倒数第 6），失球 1.62 个（倒数第 5）。

布伦特福德在某种程度上一直很稳定，因为自联赛重启以来，球队在英超联赛中没有输过一场比赛。季节！上周，布伦特福德在主场以 3:2 击败富勒姆，但在此之前对阵水晶宫（1:1）和阿森纳（1:1）。本赛季客场，布伦特福德11场比赛2胜6平，一共打进13球失19球。根据 xG，布伦特福德预计客场进球数为 1.26，失球数为 1.97。

多米尼克卡尔弗特 - 勒温对埃弗顿来说是一个问号，他错过了最近 5 场比赛。 Vitalii Mykolenko 上周因病没有参加比赛，而 Andros Townsend 和 Nathan Patterson 仍因伤缺阵。至于布伦特福德，没有新的伤病，因为替补门将托马斯斯特拉科沙是目前唯一缺阵的球员。

在本赛季的第一次交锋中，两支球队都获得了积分（1:1），但布伦特福德的预期进球为 2.15，而埃弗顿为 1.07。此前，布伦特福德4次交锋2胜1平。布伦特福德非常接近TOP6，这将保证在欧洲锦标赛中占有一席之地。是的，埃弗顿在主场击败了阿森纳，但另一个3 胜已经对阵弱队 - 水晶宫、西汉姆联和利兹联队。布伦特福德是一支更好的球队，应该赢得胜利或至少得到一分。
