West Ham ended their Goodison Park blues last season with a remarkable come-from-behind victory over the Toffees, capped off by Dimitri Payet’s added time winner.
Fitting after James McCarthy should’ve been put away for 18 months for GBH after his tackle on the Frenchman in the reverse fixture earlier in the season which ruled Payet out for eight weeks.
Sunday’s match at Goodison will showcase two teams moving in opposite directions. Everton without a win in five games in all competitions will look to get off the schneid against a West Ham side buoyant after a win against Chelsea in midweek – their third straight, extending their unbeaten run to four in a row.
You might have seen the combined XI from our colleagues over at Read Everton earlier today. We agree – in the fact that it’s awful.
Here’s a real and fair combined XI looking at form and form alone. Let us know your thoughts.
