S.P. Read Esq: Everton v Atalanta
Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to Thursday’s Europa League clash between EVERTON v ATALANTA and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.
Nice profit from the buy of the first match goal last night in the Ispwich game which, given it finished 2-2, was fortuitous that the first goal wasn’t scored until 48 minutes.
Tonight’s Europa League clash between Everton and Atalanta (8.05pm) could be something of a damp squib given the hosts are already out of the tournament. Their Premier League form has been woeful and they were brushed aside by Atalanta 3-0 in the reverse fixture back in September.
Add to the mix that Atalanta DO have something to play for…. a win would secure their place in the knockout round. They are without defeat so far (W2 D2) and have also scored the most goals in Group E (8).
Certainly Atalanta make plenty of appeal in a match that Everton could well do without and they will surely deem Sunday’s away trip to Southampton far more important given their perilous position three points off the foot of the table.
Confidence in the Toffee’s is further rattled by the fact that they have still failed to appoint a permanent manager with caretaker manager David Unsworth still at the helm. Unsworth took over from when Koeman was dismissed and has so far overseen three losses and a draw so his slim hopes of getting the job permanently have surely evaporated.
Unsworth said: “We are going to pick a team to win, a strong team that we we feel is the right one. We will be respectful to our fans.
“We put on the Everton shirt and we’re fully respectful of that.”
