David Moyes and Jack Grealish
David Moyes celebrates victory with Jack Grealish
Everton have made a promising start to the season, winning two and losing one of their opening three matches. The Toffees began with a narrow 1-0 defeat away to Leeds United, but quickly bounced back with a 2-0 victory over Brighton, followed by an impressive 3-2 win at Wolverhampton Wanderers. Everton’s summer transfer activity has been widely praised, and after finishing last season strongly under the returning David Moyes, expectations are high at Goodison Park.
Much of the optimism around the club has been fueled by Jack Grealish’s outstanding start to life at Everton, with the England international already notching four assists in three games. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has also made an encouraging start, while supporters are eager to see new arrivals Tyler Dibling, Thierno Barry, and Adam Aznou add further depth and creativity to the squad in the coming months.
Everton have established themselves as a tough team to beat at home, losing just once—a 2-0 defeat to Manchester City—in their last ten league matches at Goodison Park. Given their strong start and formidable home form, Everton will likely approach this fixture with greater confidence than their opponents.
Aston Villa, on the other hand, have endured a difficult opening to the campaign, drawing one and losing two of their first three games. After a goalless draw with Newcastle on the opening weekend, Villa suffered back-to-back defeats against Brentford (1-0) and Crystal Palace (3-0), marking a disappointing start to their league season.
While Unai Emery is unlikely to panic just yet, there is hope that deadline signings Harvey Elliott and Jadon Sancho can inject some much-needed creativity and energy into a side that has looked lackluster in attack so far. Villa’s away form is also a concern, with four losses in their last five matches on the road. Facing an in-form Everton side at Goodison Park, Villa will need a significant improvement if they are to come away with a positive result.
