Brighton and Hove lost in the dying moments at Aston Villa last week and dropped to 16th in the table. They host Everton who beat West Ham last week to escape the relegation zone and climb to 15th. Brighton are only a point behind their opponents but also only a point above the bottom three. They have only two league wins this season, a win at Watford and the 3-0 home victory over Tottenham. Brighton tried to build on that last week and took the lead at Aston Villa, only to lose 2-1. Home form hasn't been great aside from that win over Tottenham. They struggle for goals too with only nine in nine games. Closer examination shows that six of those nine goals came in their two wins.

Everton beat West Ham last week to end a run of four straight league defeats. That took them out of the bottom three and probably bought manager Marco Silva a bit more time at the club. Now Everton need to correct one of their biggest problems, namely their away form. Everton have only earned one point on the road this season, that was on the opening weekend at Crystal Palace. Only one away league goal has been scored this season in their 3-1 loss at Bournemouth. A bet on under 2.5 goals looks to be the one that can get us as winner.
