Week 7 brings us a match on Sep 11th where Arsenal hosts Everton at Emirates Stadium in a clash of these two extremely mismatched Premier League teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 19 degrees, a perfect day for football. Arsenal is fresh off their 1-3 loss against Manchester United. Lucas Fasson dos Santos scored the first goal for Manchester United in the 35th minute, then Bukayo Saka tied it up for Arsenal in the 60th minute. With 19 points in their last 10 matches Arsenal should be reasonably happy with their performance, while in their last match, Everton recorded a 0-0 scoreless draw against Liverpool. Neither Everton nor Liverpool could manage to put one past the goalie. They had 14 and 22 shots on net respectively, but no one could score, and the match ended in a scoreless draw,. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having lost 2 of their last 10.
This will be the first match for these two teams against eachother this season. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win apiece.
Anthony Gordon has been the most effective weapon for Everton lately. The English midfielder has netted two goals in his last 5 matches. Arsenal is lucky enough to have a few offensive weapons, with Martin Ødegaard and Gabriel Jesus each having 3 goals in their last 5
