Wolverhampton vs Everton Prediction and Analysis: The Away Team Escapes by a Hair's Breadth
The match between Wolverhampton and Everton in the English Premier League will take place at 9:00 PM on August 30th. Nghe An Newspaper analyzes the form, provides football commentary, and predicts the score.
Latest Wolverhampton vs Everton team news
Despite being sought after by several clubs, Jorgen Strand Larsen is likely to remain a starter for Wolves, even though he wants to move to Newcastle before the deadline. The Norwegian striker, along with several other key players such as Joao Gomes, David Moller Wolfe, and Marshall Munetsi, were rested midweek.
Toti Gomes was suspended for the match against Bournemouth but served his suspension in the match against West Ham, so he will be back in the squad.
On Everton's side, manager Moyes also rotated heavily in the League Cup, but for this match he will most likely revert to the same lineup as in the win against Brighton. The only possible change will be at left-back, with Vitaliy Mykolenko ready to return, allowing James Garner to be moved back to midfield, while Tim Iroegbunam will be sidelined.
Thierno Barry has started the last two games, playing around 60 minutes each and impressing, so he is likely to retain his place, even though Beto scored as a substitute midweek.

Latest football match prediction: Wolverhampton vs Everton
It hasn't been an easy summer for Wolves, with Matheus Cunha and Rayan Ait-Nouri leaving, and Jorgen Strand Larsen also expressing a desire for a transfer. However, Vitor Pereira's men bounced back strongly against West Ham United in the League Cup on Tuesday.
Strand Larsen – who was recently targeted by Newcastle United for a £50 million bid – became the hero, scoring two goals to help Wolves come from a 1-2 deficit to win 3-2 at Molineux.
Wolves will face Everton at home in the next round, so the upcoming Premier League match will also be an opportunity for the two teams to "assess" each other.
The home team desperately needs points, after losing both of their first two matches: a 0-4 defeat at home against Manchester City and a 0-1 loss away to Bournemouth, a game in which they played almost half the time with only 10 men.
More broadly, Wolves have only earned 1 point in their last 6 Premier League matches – the worst record among clubs that have consistently participated in the league, stemming from a slump in form at the end of last season.
Wolves risk starting the season with three consecutive Premier League defeats for the third time in their history, and this is also the fourth time in the last five years that they have failed to win any trophies after the first two rounds. A slow start is nothing new.
August, in particular, has always been a nightmare for Wolves, especially at Molineux, where they haven't won in their last 11 matches that month, a streak that dates back to 2011. Their last three Premier League games at Molineux in August all ended in defeat, conceding a combined 14 goals (losing 1-4 to Brighton, 2-6 to Chelsea, and 0-4 to Man City).
In their first two games of the season, Wolves only managed 15 shots – a worrying figure, especially if Strand Larsen leaves before the transfer window. However, when playing with 11 men, they are perfectly capable of causing problems for Everton.
Since returning to the Premier League in 2018, Wolves have never lost to Everton in their five encounters at Molineux. However, the balance seems to be tipping in Everton's favor. After only securing one point in six meetings with Wolves between 2021 and 2024, The Toffees managed a 1-1 draw here last season, following a 4-0 home win against Wolves.
The past week has been a sweet one for Everton. After their opening-day defeat to Leeds United, they celebrated the opening of their new, modern stadium with a 2-0 victory over Brighton. Jack Grealish made an impressive debut, assisting both goals for Iliman Ndiaye and James Garner, in front of 50,000 spectators.
Midweek, Everton continued their winning streak by defeating Mansfield Town in the second round of the League Cup to advance to the third round, where they will face Wolves again next month.
If they enter the international break with a run of three consecutive wins, that would be the perfect scenario for David Moyes's team. Everton's away form is also on the rise: winning 5 of their last 10 Premier League matches, and conceding a maximum of only one goal in 13 consecutive away games – their best record since Man City achieved the same in the 2021-22 season.
