Everton vs Coventry City team news and expert analysis
The Liverpool club were contenders for European football a year ago, but ultimately finished the 2025/2026 season with 49 points in 13th place. This season, they suffered their first Premier League defeats only in mid-October — first against Chelsea and then Arsenal. However, they managed to beat Newcastle in the League Cup. They then defeated the same opponent in the league, albeit by a narrow 1-0 margin.
The Coventry side could have returned from the Championship as early as 2025, but lost in the playoffs. They responded by improving and becoming division leaders in the following campaign. Finally returning to the Premier League after more than two decades away, they began with defeats and also lost to their second opponent, Aston Villa, in the League Cup. In the autumn, they managed consecutive wins over Nottingham Forest and Newcastle, but then suffered defeats to Tottenham and Fulham. In the most recent round, however, they beat Sunderland.
David Moyes' side score and concede exactly one goal per game. Things are worse for the newcomers: for every goal scored, they concede 1.78.
