Everton is coming into this match with no recent trend to the over in their matches but they are going to have some confidence here. They recently received a boost in the table with their points deduction getting reduced from 10 to 6 so now they have some breathing room between them and the relegation zone. They are coming off of a 1-1 draw away from home against Brighton in their last match and they have actually seen at least 2 goals in each of their last 4 matches as well. They do not have a win in their last 6 straight matches but they will surely be searching for one at home here, especially with the way their opponent has been conceding goals recently. They are going up against a West Ham side that has been trending heavily to the over in their recent matches. They have gone over 2.5 goals in 3 of their last 4 as well as 4 of their last 6 matches. Their defense has been awful recently as they have allowed at least 2 goals in each of their last 4 matches, averaging over 3 goals allowed per match in that span, but they are going to have some confidence here as they are coming off of a match in which their attack exploded with 4 goals. They have not been in good form recently but that win will give them confidence to push for more points in this match, they will need to push their attack though as they are going to struggle to keep Everton out of their net with that defense. Between these two sides, there will be enough goals in this match to push it over 2.5 goals.
