West Ham United host Everton in a vital game for both sides. The home side are 18th in the table and just ahead of Everton on goal difference who are 19th in the Premier League. Both clubs are only a point away from safety but fans are becoming increasingly upset, especially at Everton. West Ham have former Everton boss David Moyes in charge but his position is becoming more shaky as each week goes by. The Hammers have lost six of their last seven Premier League fixtures. The only point earned in those seven matches was a 2-2 draw at Leeds United. In their last ten league games, there's been just one win and that was against Bournemouth who are currently 17th and also in terrible form. Home form has also been a struggle this season with only three league games won and five lost and the last three have all ended in defeat. With upcoming games against Newcastle, Chelsea and Tottenham, Moyes needs a result here or he may well be out of a job and Everton in deeper relegation trouble.

Everton are managed by former West Ham player Frank Lampard. He's also hanging onto his job at Goodison Park by a thread. Everton only just survived relegation last season and are again in trouble. The Toffees have only earned one point from their last seven Premier League matches with just one win in the last 11 and an FA Cup third round exit. The pressure isn't just on Lampard but the owners of the club who were even told not to attend the last home game for safety reasons. With their next game being a home match against Arsenal and then a trip to Liverpool, Lampard is in big trouble. Away form for Everton has produced only two points from the last five league games with just one victory all season. It's hard to back either side to win considering their dismal form and a bet on both teams to score is suggested.
