[Premier League Prediction] Everton vs Southampton Prediction: On Saturday afternoon, Everton will host Southampton at Goodison Park in a matchup of two Premier League clubs involved in a relegation struggle.

Everton vs Southampton Prediction: Last chance for Frank Lampard?

This weekend will see a matchup between two of the Premier League's bottom three teams, with Everton hoping to benefit by playing Southampton at home. In their league matchup earlier in the year, the Toffees defeated the Saints 2-1, and Lampard could use another three points to ease some of the pressure that has been rising on him lately.

Everton form

Frank Lampard is under increasing pressure as a result of his team's eight-game losing streak in all competitions, which includes last weekend's 3-1 FA Cup third-round loss on the road at Manchester United.

Farhad Moshiri, the owner of the Toffees, stated in an open letter to the club's supporters that he still had trust in Lampard, despite the fact that Lampard has won just 28.6% of his games since taking over at Goodison over a year ago.

Everton form

Everton has fallen into the Premier League's relegation zone due to their poor play, and they have crucial matches coming up against fellow strugglers Southampton and West Ham United. Lampard and the Toffees enter the game on Saturday having dropped each of their previous three home league games; the last time the Toffees dropped four straight league games at Goodison Park from April to September of 1958.

However, Everton has won 12 of their previous 17 home matches against Southampton and is unbeaten in those matches. In addition, Everton won 2-1 in their most recent away game against the Saints in October.

Southampton form

Southampton's past two domestic cup games, a 2-1 FA Cup third-round triumph away at Crystal Palace last Saturday and a stunning 2-0 win at home against Manchester City in the EFL Cup quarterfinals on Wednesday, suggest that they may have turned a corner.

Sekou Mara and Moussa Djenepo's goals in the first half gave the Saints a well-deserved victory against the Citizens at St. Mary's, and the South Coast club now faces Newcastle United in a two-legged semifinal later this month.

Southampton's form

In order to keep their place in the top division for an additional 11 seasons, Jones has encouraged his squad to reproduce their cup performance in the Premier League. This season, Southampton has only won three of its 18 league games, but two of those victories have come away from home.

Their most recent away success in the Premier League was a narrow 1-0 victory against Bournemouth in the middle of October. Their previous away victory came against Leicester City back in August, a 2-1 triumph made possible by top scorer Che Adams' second-half brace.

Everton vs Southampton Current Odds

Everton vs Southampton Current Odds

Here are the most recent markets and odds for Everton vs. Southampton.

• Handicap Odds: Everton (0.92) / Southampton (1.01)
• 1x2 Odds: Everton (2.20) / Draw (3.55) / Southampton (3.45)
• Over/Under Goals: Over 2.5 (2.05) | Under 2.5 (1.77)
• Both Teams To Score: Yes (1.91) | No (1.88)

Everton entered this game as the favorite to earn all three points, but we think the odds should be considerably closer because neither club has been playing well lately and the outcome might go anyway. If you wish to bet on a First Goalscorer in this game, Dominic Calvert-Lewin is the bookies' favorite at 11/2 (6.50) - 15.4%. The England player is a strong candidate to open the scoring in this encounter because he has been gradually regaining his match fitness and had a goal disallowed in Everton's FA Cup loss at Old Trafford last time out.

Everton vs Southampton Betting Tips

Both Teams to Score

We aren't able to forecast the outcome of this game since it's too close to call, but we anticipate goals. Four of the past seven league encounters between these two clubs have seen both sides score, and the last five competitive and non-competitive games for Everton as well as four of the last six league and cup games for Southampton have also seen both teams score.

Over 2.5 Goals

Given that Everton and Southampton have faced off three times in the past, we expect at least three goals to be scored on Saturday. You can understand why we're betting on goals at Goodison Park given that over 2.5 goals have been scored in four of the host's previous five games overall as well as four of Southampton's past six games.

Everton vs Southampton Best Tips From Betimate

• Everton 2-2 Southampton

Since this relegation fight marks the midpoint of both teams' Premier League campaigns, neither Everton nor Southampton are likely to see this weekend's game as a must-win. Although a win here would provide either club a much-needed lift, we believe the points will be split in a tightly-contested match at Goodison Park.
