West Ham United vs Everton Matchday Stats Preview
West Ham have won five of their last eight Premier League games against Everton (L3), as many as they had in their previous 30 against them (D9 L16).
Everton have won more Premier League games in total (29) and away from home (13) against West Ham than they have against any other opponent. Indeed, almost a third of the Toffees’ Premier League wins in London have come against the Hammers (32.5% - 13/40).
Everton have lost their last three Premier League away games against London sides by an aggregate score of 12-1. They last lost four in a row in the capital between January and September 2018.
Having lost their first three Premier League home games this season, West Ham have now won their last two at the London Stadium. They last won three in a row in May/August 2023, while they last did so in the same campaign in October 2022.
West Ham have conceded at least once in each of their last 14 Premier League home games, the longest ongoing run of any side, and the Hammers’ longest ever in the competition. They last failed to keep a clean sheet in more consecutive top-flight home games between December 1964 and October 1965 (16).
Everton lost their first four Premier League games this season, conceding 13 goals in the process. However, they’ve lost just one of their subsequent six (W2 D3), with their four goals conceded the fewest of any side in that time.
West Ham have conceded 15 goals in the opening 15 minutes of Premier League games so far in 2024, the most such goals any side have conceded in a single calendar year in the competition. Five of those have come so far this season, a joint-league high, along with Ipswich.
All three of Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s Premier League goals against West Ham have come at the London Stadium, with the last two coming in 1-0 wins for Everton. Only against Newcastle (5) has he scored more away goals in the competition than he has at West Ham.
Jarrod Bowen has scored in his last two Premier League home games for West Ham, last scoring in three in a row at the London Stadium in February 2022. Bowen has also had a hand in five goals in his last six league games against Everton (3 goals, 2 assists).
No player has played more passes into the box (including crosses) in the Premier League this season than Everton’s Dwight McNeil this season (86), while only Cole Palmer and Bukayo Saka (28) have created more chances than McNeil (27).
