David Moyes has enjoyed a resurgence since taking over at Everton, as the Toffees have won their previous three matches. A good FA Cup run this season will ensure a bright future for the Merseyside club.

Bournemouth’s club record unbeaten sequence was ended by Liverpool last weekend, but the progression made by Andoni Iraola’s side this term ensures that the Cherries will be a side that many will be hoping to avoid.

Everton vs. Bournemouth Prop Picks

A low-scoring affair looks set for Goodison Park this weekend. But, Justin Kluivert could be the player to make the difference for the visiting side. The Dutch playmaker has been in inspired form in 2024-25, scoring eleven goals in 23 Premier League matches, and adding four assists for good measure.

Everton vs. Bournemouth Picks

There is no denying that Everton’s form has picked up since Moyes returned to the club. However, Bournemouth’s record against the Toffees is too difficult to overlook. The Cherries have won seven of their last nine against their opponents, and have already completed the league double over their rivals this season.
