Everton: Analysis and Team Preview

The Toffees started the campaign under Sean Dyche but struggled for form, winning just three of their first 19 matches. Dyche was dismissed in January because of this poor run, and replaced by former manager David Moyes.

They are currently in the 15th position in the Premier League with 35 points from 31 games. The Toffees have managed 7 wins, 14 draws, and 10 losses and have a negative goal difference of -5, as they have conceded 38 goals but scored only 33.

Iliman Ndiaye is a standout performer for the Toffees, leading the goal score with 9 goals in all competitions (7 in Premier League). This includes a crucial penalty equalizer in the 1–1 draw against Arsenal. 

In midfield, Dwight McNeil has provided three assists and three goals, while striker Beto has netted six goals. Goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has saved the team 38 goals and delivered nine clean sheets this season. His strong performance has earned him the highest rating among Everton players in EA SPORTS FC™ 25.

Key players like Dwight McNeil, Jesper Lindstrøm, Calvert-Lewin, and Tim Iroegbunam are struggling with injuries and have been sidelined for several weeks. Dwight McNeil underwent surgery on his knee in December and may have to miss several more weeks as he recovers.
