Stan Collymore predicts scoreline of Everton clash v West Ham in Premier League
Stan Collymore predicts Everton to lose at the hands of West Ham when the two sides meet at the London Stadium on Sunday.
Frank Lampard’s men are three points above the Premier League’s relegation zone as it stands.
Winning against Newcastle in the last match before the international break was a huge boost for the struggling Toffees.
However, Collymore feels it’ll be a crash back down to earth for the Blues on Sunday, predicting a 2-1 win for Europe-chasing West Ham.
“The Hammers will pile the misery on Everton and their fans will enjoy putting one over on Frank Lampard,” said Collymore in the print edition of the Sunday People on 3 April [page 50].
Time to change
Everton’s win over Newcastle last month should be seen as a turning point in the Blues’ season.
It wasn’t the best of wins – but a scrappy 1-0 victory gets you the same three points as a stunning 5-0 victory.
And all that matters right now for the Toffees are the points.
We have plenty of games in hand on our relegation rivals and we also have the best squad out of the bottom four clubs.
Lampard hasn’t done what we expected him to do just yet but it’s time for him to get a tune out of this squad, and it’s also time for the players to step up too after months of horrific performances.
Collymore predicts David Moyes’ West Ham to win on Sunday and we can understand why, in all honesty.
It’d take a brave – or stupid – man to bet in favour of Everton this season.
But we feel as though a win in East London could be the start of a revival based on the last result.
Come on you Blues.
