Everton have undergone a renaissance in the last few weeks in the Premier League. The Toffees newfound form will be put to the test when struggling Swansea visit Goodison Park on Monday night.
Sam Allardyce’s team are now four games unbeaten in the Premier League, having picked up three wins and a draw.
A 1-0 win at Newcastle last time out means that the Merseysiders have now kept clean sheets in three of their last four league games, conceding just one goal in the process.
The home side have also been in good form on home soil, winning three consecutive Premier League games at Goodison Park, while they have also won 14 of their last 18 home games in the league.
The Toffees have scored at least two goals in their last four home games in the Premier League.
One negative heading into this game for the Toffees is that they have failed to defeat Swansea in the last seven meetings in all competitions, suffering three defeats in the process.
However, the Welsh side have won just once in their last 15 visits to Goodison Park in all competitions.
Swansea’s position at the bottom of the Premier League worsened this weekend with rivals Crystal Palace and West Ham both picking up away victories. The Swans are now four points away from safety.
Paul Clement’s side have now lost eight of their last ten games in the Premier League. The visitors form on the road has been poor, as they have lost their last five away games in the top-flight.
The Swans main problem this season has been scoring goals, as they have scored a league-low of nine goals while scoring just four league goals on their travels.
Forebet predicts that the Toffees’ good run of form will continue and they will add to Swansea’s relegation worries.
