Form – Another extraordinary season has seen David Moyes’ side competing for the Champions League for the first time since 2005.
The Toffees are the rank outsiders for a top-four finish and a lack of squad depth compared to their league rivals may prove to be Everton’s downfall in the end.
That being said, the Merseysider’s remaining fixtures do look quite positive for Moyes and his team and they could quite likely pick up three wins. Their form is good and they are a solid unit – missing out on European football would be harsh on Everton.
Players – Marouane Fellaini has been great for the Goodison Park outfit once again since moving further up the field and occupying the hold behind Nikica Jelavic.
At a pinch under £7million Kevin Mirallas could be a contender for bargain of the season (although that will probably go to Michu) and Everton’s starting XI could beat any Premier League on their day – as has been proven with victories against Man Utd and Tottenham.
Fanatix prediction – 6th.
