Everton take on the visitors Leeds in the round 24 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, February 18th at Goodison Park (Liverpool).
Everton are trying to completely repeat the scenario of last season. The Toffees under Carlo Ancelotti spoke publicly of their Champions League ambitions just a couple of seasons ago. True, the Italian could not even bring them to European competitions, and then fled to Madrid. He was replaced by another master, Benitez, and who failed miserably. A year ago, Lampard replaced Rafa. At first, he was a hero, managing to prevent relegation to the Championship. But in the new season, Frank did something only sporadically. As a result, by the middle of winter, the Liverpool club had slipped into the relegation zone, and the Englishman became unemployed. Experienced Sean Dyche replaced him. And the ex-coach Burnley started with a sensational 1-0 against Premier League leaders Arsenal. The derby with Liverpool, however, ended 0-2 and showed that one should not expect much quickly.

Leeds are in many ways similar to their next rival. The Peacocks are also quite a popular and even legendary club. But they had hung around in the Championship for a long time, and only Bielsa was able to lift and keep them in the Premier League. But they did not hesitate to say goodbye to the Argentine a year ago, when the situation was difficult, but not hopeless. The irony is that Jesse Marsh, who was trusted until the winter transfer window, lasted exactly a year, and left the Whites in an even worse situation than the club was in when the American took over the club. After the resignation of the American, Leeds had to play twice in a row with Manchester United. And at first they led by 2 goals, but did not prevent the hosts from coming back to Old Trafford. At home, there was nothing that Leeds could oppose to Manchester United’s attacking line.
Leeds, having risen in the Premier League in 2020, won against today’s opponent, moreover, in Liverpool. But then the Toffee alternated wins with draws, until 1-1 in August. Both clubds need a result, even to the detriment of the game. We bet on "total under 2.5 goals".
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
