Indium. Everton total under 0.5
Brighton are seventh, which allows them to play in the LK next season, which can already be considered a great success. The team has 3 matches to play against the nearest Chasers. But Roberto de Zerbi’s players have an even better option – getting to the LE. They are fifth in the table in terms of points conceded, but even if they fail to get past Liverpool, sixth-placed Tottenham are doing quite well. So Brighton clearly have no intention of dropping points against the outsider.
Of course, at Everton, every point is now extremely important. The team is ranked 19th and can fly to the Championship for the first time in many decades. But for now, the loss from 17th place is easy to make up – only 1 point. The calendar is complicated but Liverpool will have more fights against Wolverhampton and Bournemouth.
It’s hard to imagine what could have helped Everton at least not lose. The team only managed 1 away win in the whole season. But the owners should take note of their excellent defence, which conceded only 14 goals in 16 home games in this Premier League draw. So I expect that only the home team will win here, while the visitors will not be able to score.
