Can Arsenal Maintain Their Strong Home Record Against Everton? Arsenal vs Everton Prediction | October 24, 2026
Arsenal host Everton at the Emirates Stadium in London on October 24 in the eighth round of the Premier League. The hosts arrive after a 2–2 draw with Bayern Munich in the Champions League, while Everton are looking to respond to their first defeat of the season. Both teams have made solid starts to the campaign, but Arsenal’s home form and recent head-to-head record give them an advantage.
Arsenal
Arsenal continued their unbeaten run with a 2–2 draw against Bayern Munich in the Champions League. The London side took the lead before falling behind, but they eventually found an equaliser to secure a point. The result extended their unbeaten streak to four matches across all competitions.
It was Arsenal’s first dropped points in the Champions League this season. They had previously beaten Napoli and Lille, keeping clean sheets in both matches. After three rounds, Arsenal sit seventh in the overall standings with seven points, having scored six goals and conceded two.
Their Premier League campaign has also been productive. Arsenal beat Nottingham Forest away in their most recent league match, with Madueke scoring a late winner. That followed a home victory over Leeds, leaving the London side with six wins and one defeat after seven rounds. They have collected 18 points, scored 11 goals and conceded five, placing them second, three points behind Manchester City.
Arsenal have been particularly effective at the Emirates, winning all three of their home league matches. They have scored seven goals and conceded just twice.
Their home record against Everton is also impressive. Arsenal are unbeaten in their last six home meetings with the visitors, winning five and drawing one. They kept clean sheets in four of those six matches.
- Possible Arsenal lineup: Raya, White, Konsa, Magalhães, Calafiori, Rice, Guimarães, Eze, Ødegaard, Madueke, Havertz.
Everton
Everton head into this fixture after a 2–0 home defeat to Chelsea. The result ended an eight-match unbeaten run across all competitions and marked their first defeat of the current season.
After seven Premier League rounds, Everton have recorded two wins, four draws and one defeat. They have collected 10 points, scored eight goals and conceded seven, placing them in the middle of the table. Their results have been relatively consistent, although the number of draws has limited their progress. The Toffees have drawn all three of their away league matches so far.
Everton have also progressed through two rounds of the League Cup, defeating Preston and Wolverhampton. Their defensive record has been encouraging, with five clean sheets in nine matches across all competitions this season.
However, their recent record against Arsenal presents a challenge. Everton are winless in their last seven meetings with the London side, drawing twice and losing five times. They failed to score in five of those seven matches.
- Possible Everton lineup: Pickford, Maitland-Niles, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko, Garner, Armstrong, Röhl, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish, Barry.
Head-to-Head
Arsenal have dominated this fixture in recent seasons. Across the last 10 meetings, the London side have recorded seven wins, two draws and one defeat. Their overall record in 69 Premier League meetings is also favourable, with 41 victories compared with Everton’s 12, while 16 matches ended level.
The latest two league meetings both went Arsenal’s way: they won 2–0 at home in March 2026 and 1–0 away in December 2025.

Prediction
Arsenal enter the match with a clear advantage in home form and recent head-to-head results. Their three wins from three league games at the Emirates provide a strong platform, while Everton’s three away draws suggest that the visitors may focus on keeping the contest close rather than taking unnecessary risks. Everton have shown defensive resilience this season, but their recent scoring record against Arsenal is a concern. The hosts have kept four clean sheets in their last six home meetings with the Toffees, and the visitors have failed to score in five of the last seven overall encounters. Arsenal’s demanding Champions League match against Bayern Munich could affect their energy levels, while their solid home form may help them keep the game under control. With Arsenal’s defensive consistency and Everton’s limited attacking output in recent meetings, a lower-scoring contest is a plausible outcome. Recommended Bet: Under 3 Total Goals
