An interesting read, knock yourself out :thumbsup:



Perhaps the most significant factor around his game for both coaches is the fact they both get a full week to rest up and prepare for this game. Since Carlo Ancelotti’s first game against Arsenal back on December 21st, his four subsequent games came at an average of 3.5 days apart.

Graham Potter similarly took charge of five games in that same period with an equal average. Allowing ample time for both sets of coaching staff to prepare their players and analyse their opponents.


Everton will be keen to return to winning ways after their home defeat to Liverpool in the FA Cup this past Sunday. Brighton & Hove Albion will also have their targets ahead of this Saturday’s clash, with only one win in their previous seven the Seagulls will be aiming to course-correct their season at ground that has not been a place of good fortune in recent times. Brighton’s two previous visits to Goodison Park ended in defeat, also conceding two or more goals in their last four head to heads at this ground.

Brighton’s Neil Maupay has scored three goals in his last seven games and found the target once in the reverse fixture against Everton this season. You would be confident he will be one of the first names on Graham Potter’s team sheet come Saturday. Similarly, Ancelotti will most certainly hold a place on the starting XI for the in-form English target man Dominic Calvert-Lewin who also got his name on the score sheet against Brighton earlier this season.

No surprise to announce the significance of this fixture is in the points, Brighton who are currently placed fourteenth in the Premier League table can leapfrog Everton who now sit in 11th place. Everton are only one point clear of Brighton on 25 points going into this game, meaning there is the potential to go four points clear by Sunday or fall two points behind.


Looking ahead to Saturday’s game between Everton and Brighton & Hove Albion, we have provided a tactical preview that offers a comprehensive and straightforward tactical analysis of how both teams will match up. Furthermore, considering all aspects of the analysis, we aim to find what or who will be the difference in this game and the tactics behind it all. Below we will look at the attacking and defensive qualities of both teams as well as key players that can decide the game.

I will be stunned if Bong gets the nod over Bernardo, as that article suggests, but you really don’t know with GP team selections
