Everton vs Aston Villa Predictions

Can the Toffees Twist the Knife on a Goal-Shy Villa?

• Everton have kept two clean sheets in their last three league games, a sign their defensive unit is gelling at the right time.
• Aston Villa are the only Premier League side yet to score this season, failing to find the net across 270 minutes of football.
• Five of the last six head-to-head meetings at Everton have gone under 2.5 goals, highlighting a tendency towards tight, cagey contests.

Best Bet for Everton vs Aston Villa

Everton welcome Aston Villa to the Hill Dickinson Stadium this Saturday, and it already feels like a season-shaping contest despite being so early in the Premier League calendar. The Toffees have opened the campaign brightly, securing two wins from their last three outings, including a thrilling 3-2 away success at Wolves and a confident 2-0 win over Brighton. There’s a sense of cautious optimism building among the Everton faithful, and you can almost feel the buzz around their shiny new home ground.

Villa, however, arrive in a mess. Still searching for their first goal of the season, they’ve limped through three games without finding the net, the only team in the division yet to do so. For a side boasting talents like Ollie Watkins and Youri Tielemans, that’s more than a little embarrassing. Their goalless draw with Newcastle flattered them, and since then it’s been back-to-back losses against Brentford and Crystal Palace, with the latter dismantling them 3-0 at Villa Park. Unless something changes fast, Villa are in danger of being labelled the Premier League’s early crisis club.

The spotlight will naturally fall on Jack Grealish, now in Everton blue, who will be desperate to hurt his old club. Football writes its own stories, and this one feels almost too obvious.

Why Back Everton to Win to Nil

When you look at the form lines, this bet practically jumps off the page. Everton’s recent surge has been built on defensive solidity combined with sharper attacking transitions. Against Brighton they looked organised, patient, and clinical when opportunities came. At Wolves they showed resilience, bouncing back from setbacks to edge a thriller. This is a team that’s growing into itself.

Contrast that with Villa, who haven’t scored in three league matches. Watkins remains their main hope, but he’s been starved of service, and when chances have come, he hasn’t taken them. Tielemans and McGinn are working hard in midfield but without penetration in the final third. It feels like watching someone trying to pick a lock with a spoon – plenty of effort, zero outcome.

Everton, meanwhile, have attacking sparks in Grealish, Ndiaye and Dewsbury-Hall, and you sense Grealish will relish every second of this opportunity against his former side. The Toffees aren’t exactly free-scoring, but they don’t need to be here. Villa look so blunt that one or two goals from Everton should be enough.

BettingTips4You.com expert Steve Harrington adds:

“It’s hard to ignore the contrast in confidence. Everton look like a side with momentum, while Villa are visibly short on belief. Unless Villa produce a miracle, Everton to win with a clean sheet feels the safest bet.”

Taking all of this into account, Everton look primed to secure a comfortable win while keeping Villa’s misfiring forwards at bay.

For the correct score, a 2-0 Everton win looks most realistic. The Toffees’ recent results show they’re capable of seeing games out with a solid backline, and Villa’s toothless attack makes it difficult to see them breaking through.
