⚽️ Game: Everton vs. Liverpool

The final Merseyside derby at Goodison Park takes place tonight. ‘Ow mad’s tha? Quite fitting that David Moyes has returned as manager in time for the rearranged fixture, R.I.P Sean Dyche and your gravelly voice. Alexa play Z-Cars!

Moyeseh has made an instant impact since his return, 3 consecutive Premier League victories are sandwiched in between a loss to Aston Villa on his first game back in charge and a defeat to Bournemouth in the FA Cup last time out. The Scotsman has lifted Everton to the lofty heights of 16th place, however, they are 9 points clear of the relegation zone.

Everton have had 49 efforts at goal in those 5 games, an average of 9.8 shots per game for the Toffees, whilst conceding an average of 13 shots from their opponents in that span. They’re committing 11.4 fouls per game and are fouled 11.6 times per game. The toffees average 20.4 tackles under Moyes and their opponents are averaging 18.8 tackles, for a combined average of 39.2 tackles per game. 19.6 average throw-ins per game for Moyes’ men whilst their opposition have the exact same average, combining for a total of 39.2 match throw-ins per game.

A beneficiary of Moyes’ return has been Jake O’Brien. The Irishman was in exile under Dyche despite been signed by him last summer. Moyes has deployed the former Lyon man in an unfamiliar right-back role which should see him tasked with stopping either Cody Gakpo or Luis Diaz tonight. O’Brien has picked up 2 yellow cards in just 309 minutes of Premier League action this term, with his card against Brighton coming at full-time following an altercation with Brighton’s Yankuba Minteh. Plenty of those handbags on Derby Day hopefully!

⚽️ Game: Plymouth vs. Millwall

Miron Muslic’s Plymouth side will be on cloud nine after the bottom placed Championship side beat top of the Premier League Liverpool in the FA Cup at the weekend. They entertain a Millwall side who are on an impressive unbeaten run including their own slightly smaller upset in the FA Cup when they beat Leeds.

Aaron Connolly has impressed since joining The Lions in the January transfer window from Sunderland. He’s had 9 shots, with 5 of those coming from outside the box and has scored once in his 4 appearances, starting the last 2 league games. He had 3 shots from outside of the box vs. Portsmouth and his 3rd effort of the game in injury time just whistled past the far post. He had another 3 shots vs. QPR with just the 1 coming from outside of the box which was from a free-kick in the 60th minute. Connolly scored his first goal for Millwall in the first minute vs. QPR. I’m backing him to get his name on the scoresheet again vs relegation candidates Plymouth Argyle.
