Everton vs Arsenal Prediction - 16/09/2023 - Premier League
Arsenal head to Goodison Park as a clear favorite. In the opening duo of season matches, Mikel Arteta boldly ventured into experimenting with the squad's formations, driven by the aspiration to unearth a heightened sense of synergy for the ongoing campaign.
Although this initial tactical choice might have caused a bit of disarray in the Gunners' performances during those encounters, there's an optimistic outlook that they are progressively amalgamating their efforts as they ease into the rhythm of the season.
After the successful return of Oleksandr Zinchenko to the team, there's now a celebratory atmosphere as Gabriel Jesus makes his comeback following a period of absence due to surgery. The presence of the Brazilian striker is poised to offer a substantial uplift to Arteta's offensive unit following their opening two wins, during which they managed to hold their ground in the final moments of both games.
Meanwhile, Everton, under Sean Dyche's management, have displayed an assertive style of play, particularly evident in their transition defense and defense within the penalty box, where they've faced challenges. This strategy has contributed to elevated pressing statistics and an increased ability to compel turnovers in high areas of the pitch.
However, in their first four domestic games, the Toffees marked three defeats and a draw, while scoring twice and conceding eight.
Prediction: Everton 0 - 3 Arsenal
