Only several days before Wembley the supporters of Everton are experiencing another breathtaking event – an infrequent occasion – undercard game. Roberto Martinez, being under tension of the unsuccessful league promotion, won’t let his team give up. What they expect now is not a downfall in front of their arch opponent being ahead of the most important match of the season.

This game is of the same value for Liverpool, no doubt they are still in a position to compete with Manchester United in fifth. Another goal they have is to continue their uninterrupted line of victories and to appear in the Euro League half-finals the following week. They have all chances to win, but the opponent is as strong and as skillful as they are. They were equally successful in seven games in a row. Amazing results of the 10 games are 27 scored goals, which is something extraordinary. One of the major goalscorers is Romelu Lukaku, being successful five times in his eight games versus Liverpool.

After winning Chelsea a problem with Everton’s attack has become visible. Their success in the FA Cup gave them a kind of overestimation of their forces, so recently it has become an issue, how they use their scoring chances. In addition, their defense deserves special words of commendation. On the contrary to Liverpool, an obvious lack of skillful defenders can be seen.

Everton had only two successful goals during five plays since they won Chelsea, however, the coach must have changed the approach of the strategy during the game and we will see a completely different game this Wednesday. Without any doubt, they can overtake any squad in the league as they have proven this in their 17 matches. Judging by how the absolute majority of games here at Merseyside (six out of seven) ended with a draw, one should notice that all these teams are equally strong.

Judging by the amount of successful Liverpool’s and Everton’s matches we can figure out a probable result. Liverpool had 11 home games and nine of them were level at half-time and seven of Everton’s away matches had the similar result. In this case, a nice bet is 2.4. However, we should take into consideration that the Reds didn’t have a long rest between the matches and the main players of Everton will come back with strength renewed, this may give us a smooth match, so bet 4.0 if you believe the honors will be partnered. Why not to bet at 6.5 on a Draw/Draw Half-Time/Full-Time?
