Arsenal vs Everton prediction: Premier League preview

Arsenal and Everton form before the match

Arsenal have 18 points from seven league matches and a goal difference of six. Their home record is three wins from three, with an average of 2.3 goals scored and 0.7 conceded per home game in the competition so far. They have kept four clean sheets across the season.

Everton have 10 points and a goal difference of one. They are unbeaten away from home in the league, although all three of their away games have ended in draws. Their away scoring and conceding averages both stand at 1.0 goal per game, a record that points to a close contrast with Arsenal’s stronger home numbers.

Across their last five matches in all competitions, Arsenal have recorded three wins, a draw and a defeat. Everton’s sequence includes two wins, two draws and a loss. Their recent results include league matches as well as cup and European fixtures, so they offer context rather than a direct measure of how Saturday’s game will unfold.

Recent meetings between Arsenal and Everton

Arsenal have avoided defeat in the last five listed meetings, winning three and drawing two. The most recent was a 2–0 Arsenal win in March 2026, while the previous meeting, in December 2025, ended 1–0 to Arsenal at Everton.

The other three matches were tighter: a 1–1 draw in April 2025, a goalless draw in December 2024 and a 2–1 Arsenal victory in May 2024. Those results show that the fixture has included both narrow contests and wins for the London side; they do not determine what happens in this meeting.

Arsenal team news and match factors

Bukayo Saka is a major doubt after coming off in the 10th minute against Bayern with a thigh injury. Mikel Arteta said the injury did not look good, but its extent had not been confirmed. Christos Tzolis was also reported injured, and the team data lists William Saliba among Arsenal’s absentees with a back injury.

Arsenal played away in Munich on Wednesday before returning for this Saturday home match. That short turnaround is part of the context, while their established home record gives them a strong league platform. Everton’s three away draws mean they have yet to lose on the road in the competition, but they will arrive after the Chelsea defeat.

Starting line-ups have not been published and are usually released around 30 minutes before kick-off, so team news remains provisional. Any match assessment involves uncertainty, particularly while Arsenal’s injury picture is still being clarified.
