Everton v West Ham
Premier League, Saturday, 3pm

LAST MEETING: West Ham 1-3 Everton (08/11/08) Jack Collison looked to have won it for the Hammers but in four incredible minutes, the game was turned on its head. A Louis Saha brace and a Joleon Lescott header saw the Toffees take all three points.

LAST TIME AT GOODISON PARK: Everton 1-1 West Ham (22/03/08) Dean Ashton’s second half strike cancelled out Yakubu’s opener to earn a point.

HEAD-TO-HEAD: Everton 59 wins, West Ham 36 wins, 24 draws

FORM: Everton recently shut out both Manchester United and Chelsea, and with West Ham struggling for goals, Gianfranco Zola will have plenty of work to do if they are to trouble the Toffees’ backline.

David Moyes’ side will be up for the clash, as they still harbour realistic hopes of pipping Aston Villa for fifth place.

DANGER MEN: Hair raisers Marouane Fellaini and Jo have been taking Goodison by storm, combining to good effect at the heart of the Toffees’ attack. Fellaini, in particular, specialises in bringing his team-mates into play with his strong hold-up play and deft flicks.

FUN FACT: The tower depicted on Everton’s crest is a famous feature of the area, and was once used as a bridewall to incarcerate criminals.

The wreaths wrapped around it were the symbols of winners in classical times.

PREDICTION: Everton 2 West Ham 1
