How both teams go into Brighton vs Everton
Sean Dyche became the latest Premier League manager to lose his job after Everton extended their winless run to five games, with three draws and two losses. Despite battling hard for draws against Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester City, it was their inability to score from open play that ultimately led to Dyche’s departure.
In his last five matches in charge, the team managed to net only one goal while conceding four times. As a result, they currently sit two places and four points above the relegation zone. Following in his footsteps is a familiar face: David Moyes, who returns after more than a decade away. The Scottish tactician is undeniably the club’s most successful coach in the Premier League era.
It’s been a topsy-turvy season for Brighton, who, after their opening 20 matches, find themselves in ninth place. However, they were currently on an eight-game winless streak (with six draws and two losses), which came to an end with back to back wins over Man United and Ipswich.
