West Ham vs Everton: prediction, H2H and probable lineups — 25.04.2026
One of the Premier League's headline fixtures this weekend will take place at the London Stadium, where West Ham host Everton. For the Hammers, this is a crucial clash in their fight for survival, while the Toffees are still chasing coveted European spots. Here’s a bet on the outcome of this encounter with promising odds for success.
Match preview
West Ham are picking up points at a critical stage of the season: following a commanding 4-0 win over Wolves, the team played out a goalless draw against Crystal Palace, securing back-to-back clean sheets. This run has kept the Hammers just outside the relegation zone, though the battle remains extremely tight.
Nuno Espírito Santo’s side has been particularly dangerous at home, going unbeaten in five straight league matches at the London Stadium. Historically, West Ham have found meetings with Everton tricky, but in recent home fixtures against the Merseysiders, the Londoners have started to turn the tables.
Under David Moyes, Everton remain in the hunt for European football despite last round’s derby defeat to Liverpool (1-2). The Toffees have been impressive on the road, picking up 25 points away from home — among the best records in the league.
However, consistency has been elusive: Everton have won just one of their last four Premier League matches. Still, with their attacking form led by Beto, the visitors are more than capable of causing problems for any opponent.
Probable lineups
- West Ham: Hermansen, Wan-Bissaka, Mavropanos, Disasi, Diouf, Bowen, Soucek, Fernandes, Summerville, Pablo, Castellanos.
- Everton: Pickford, O’Brien, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko, Garner, Gueye, McNeil, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye, Beto.
Match facts and head-to-head
- The last three Premier League meetings between these sides have ended in draws.
- West Ham are unbeaten at home in their last five league matches.
- Everton are among the league’s best away performers this season.
Prediction
This match promises to be tight and cagey: West Ham are expected to play cautiously, fully aware of the cost of any mistake, while Everton will look to exploit their strengths in transition. Home advantage could prove vital for the Hammers, but the visitors look well-organized. The recommended bet here is 'West Ham to win with a (0) handicap' at 1.69.
