Bolton League Form: LDLLWL Position: 8th
Bolton Wanderers have been enjoying a good season and may be starting to hold ambitions of qualifying for European football next season. Just one league win in their last seven league games, though, has seen them begin to struggle for goals and confidence. The Wanderers have managed just 4 goals in the spell that has seen them win once so far this calendar year. On-loan striker Daniel Sturridge has scored 2 goals in 2 games since joining form Chelsea and the youngster is looking good to score the last goal with odds of 13/2 from Bet365. The lack of goals for Bolton over the last few weeks may worry manager Owen Coyle but if they can find the net against Everton then they have a chance as every time they have scored 2 or more this season they have not lost.
Everton League Form: LWDDLW Position: 13th
Everton produced a great attacking display last time out to beat Blackpool 5-3 in a hugely entertaining game that continued their good recent form. Although in complete contrast to their opponents on Sunday, scoring goals has not been a problem for the Toffees lately. David Moyes’ men have managed 18 goals in their last 7 league and cup games while suffering just one defeat in the process. Louis Saha scored 4 in the win over the Seasiders and in the process took his tally to 6 goals in 3 games, therefore, odds of 9/1 for the striker to score first and Everton to win is a standout bet at William Hill. Tim Cahill could come back into the side for the trip to Bolton as Everton may revert to the 4-4-1-1 now the Australian has returned from international duty.
Match Prediction Everton WIN best priced at 7/4 Skybet
Everton should go into the Sunday clash on wave of confidence after their win against Blackpool and have a striker in great form. Although they will have to defend better this time out and if they get at Bolton early on then you feel their quality in midfield should shine through. The two sides drew 1-1 earlier in the season but the Toffees have improved since then and a correct score of 2-1 should give a good return at 10/1 with Betfred.
