Everton vs Wolves: Premier League Preview, Team News & Key Stats

As Everton prepares to face Wolverhampton Wanderers in their upcoming Premier League match, the stakes are high for both teams. Everton is seeking to secure a league double over Wolves, a feat they last accomplished in the 2020-21 season after edging them 3-2 at Molineux in August.

Everton vs Wolves: Match Preview

The Toffees have performed admirably against Wolves recently, claiming victory in two of their last three league encounters and drawing the remaining match. In contrast, Wolves had a more favorable streak prior to this, losing two of their last three matches against Everton.

Recent Form and Statistics

• Wolves have historically struggled at Everton, recording only four away wins out of 11 encounters (D2 L5).
• Everton has struggled in recent home matches, suffering consecutive losses at Hill Dickinson Stadium for the first time since moving there.
• The last time Everton lost three straight home league games was in September 2023.
• Wolves are winless in their last 12 Premier League away matches, with 10 losses and two draws.
• In their travels, Wolves have conceded the first goal in their last seven away games, managing to secure only one draw against Manchester United after trailing 1-0.

Everton’s track record against teams at the bottom of the table is concerning, as they have lost five of their last nine Premier League matches against these opponents. However, they managed to secure a 2-0 victory against Southampton in May 2025, which marks their only win under David Moyes in such circumstances.

Player Performances

This season, Wolves have struggled offensively away from home, scoring only one goal from open play, the lowest in the league. Notably, five of their last six away league goals have come from corner kicks.

On the Everton side, manager David Moyes boasts a perfect record against Wolves’ manager Rob Edwards, having won both previous encounters while Edwards was at the helm of Luton Town. Moyes’s success against managers he has faced more than twice is notable, as he has a flawless record against Gary O’Neil as well.

On an individual level, Everton’s Jack Grealish has been impressive, with six Premier League assists this season, trailing only his own performances in previous seasons. Hwang Hee-chan from Wolves is also making waves, accumulating 30 goal involvements in the league, with only Raúl Jiménez and Matheus Cunha recording more for the club.

Conclusion

As Everton hosts Wolverhampton, both teams have critical points to prove. The current form suggests an intriguing matchup, with Everton aiming to maintain their dominance and Wolves desperate to turn the tide in their favor. The stage is set at Hill Dickinson Stadium for what promises to be an engaging clash in the Premier League.
