Bet on Everton vs PeterboroughToffees Too Strong for Posh at Goodison?
Dyche is on the brink after Everton suffered another defeat last weekend. The 1-0 loss at Bournemouth was the club’s eighth Premier League reverse of the campaign. The Merseysiders sit 16th after claiming just three wins from 19 league matches.
Peterborough have been battling for promotion to the EFL Championship for the past few years, but Posh are having a disappointing 2024-25 League One season. United are down in 19th after seven wins, four draws, and 13 defeats.
Everton have picked up just one victory since October. They drew three matches in a row in December, holding Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester City to stalemates, but back-to-back losses to Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth have piled on the pressure.
As you would expect, Everton are the clear favourites to get the win on home soil, but can the third-tier outfit cause a huge cup upset at Goodison this Thursday?
