Everton's Unbeaten Start Faces Away Form Test at Hull
Manchester Update analyses Everton's impressive seven-game unbeaten streak and their ongoing challenges in away fixtures, ahead of their clash with Hull

Everton remain unbeaten across seven league and cup matches this term, demonstrating a strong start to the season. However, the club continues to seek an end to a seven-game winless streak in Premier League away fixtures as they prepare to face Hull City.

Everton’s Form and Upcoming Challenge

David Moyes’ Everton side has shown encouraging signs this season, including draws against Tottenham and Bournemouth, indicating resilience despite their struggles on the road. The Toffees have also secured three successive clean sheets, building optimism after a mid-table finish last term, as reported by Racing Post.

The upcoming match against Hull City at the MKM Stadium on Sunday, October 11, presents another test. Hull, returning to the Premier League, has made an encouraging start, securing eight points from their opening five games, including a home win over Manchester United and draws against Aston Villa and Chelsea.

Key Players and Team News

A central figure in Everton’s attack has been an unnamed Algerian midfielder, who has registered 26 shots in seven appearances this season. He scored his first goal since the opener in a 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace and has netted twice in the draw with Chelsea, as well as in two of his three international appearances during the break. This player has had 13 efforts on goal in five league games.

The match is anticipated to feature a traditional defensive battle, with Hull striker Oli McBurnie expected to engage with Everton’s central defenders, James Tarkowski and Jarrad Branthwaite. McBurnie has received three bookings this season, including in three of his last four league appearances for the new top-flight side.

Everton’s predicted line-up (4-2-3-1) is expected to feature: Pickford; Maitland-Niles, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Armstrong, Garner; Johnson, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish; Barry.
