Everton welcome league leaders Arsenal to the Hill Dickinson Stadium to round off the Saturday, December 20 action in the Premier League.

Arsenal to win – Strong favourites

Under 2.5 goals – Strong H2H trend

Bukayo Saka to score or assist – Highest xG + xA amongst Arsenal squad

The Toffees come into the game on a strong run, having won three of their last five and keeping clean sheets in each of those wins.

David Moyes’ Everton side were easily beaten last time out by Chelsea. However, the Toffees remain in the top half following recent wins over Man United, Bournemouth, and Nottingham Forest.

The hosts have been decent at home, winning four from eight and losing only to Newcastle and Tottenham.

The visitors will be looking to maintain their two-point gap at the top; a 94th-minute own goal secured a seventh home win in eight matches last time out against Wolves.

Arsenal have the best defensive record in the league comfortably, conceding only 10 goals in 16 matches, five better than second-best Chelsea and Crystal Palace.

Only Crystal Palace have recorded more points on the road than Arsenal’s 14. Although their last away trip featured last-minute heartbreak at the hands of Emi Buendia and Aston Villa, who snatched a 2-1 victory.
