The heat waves are swirling at the bottom, as Everton is just at the edge of safety. Nothing less than a win will keep the Merseyside hopes alive, while just a win would secure the Seagulls a spot in the final cut of European positions.

This season, Roberto De Zerbi has turned Amex into a fortress, losing just once at home in the Premier League all season. In all competitions, they have not tasted defeat since the end of September, totaling 11 games at the Amex, which spans around five months.

Sitting seventh in the Premier League after 25 games, the Seagulls have ten wins, eight draws, and seven losses, leaving them 38 points behind Tottenham Squad. Throughout this time, they have managed to score 43 goals and concede 40 goals in 25 games, with just three clean sheets.

Everton find themselves in 17th place in the Premier League with 20 points after 25 games, with eight wins, six draws, and 11 losses, maintaining a seven-point gap above Burnley and Sheffield United, and are above Luton only by goal difference.

Brighton’s injury problems have been quite problematic this season. However, Veltman, Ansu Fati, Tariq Lamptey, Pervis Estupinan, and Igor are back in action. Unfortunately, Joao Pedro, Jack Hinshelwood, Julio Enciso, and Solly March remain sidelined, meaning Albion is not yet at full strength.

Brighton’s possible 11: Verbruggen, Webster, van Hecke, Dunk, Lamptey, Gross, Gilmour, Mitoma, Buonanotte, Adingra, Welbeck.

Everton, on the other hand, have a relatively strong squad to choose from, with Abdoulaye Doucoure and Arnaut Danjuma being the only absentees.

Everton’s possible 11: Pickford; Mykolenko, Branthwaite, Tarkowski, Godfrey, Garner, Gueye, McNeil, Doucoure, Young, Calvert-Lewin.
