Everton will host Brighton & Hove Albion at Goodison Park on Tuesday (January 3) in the Premier League. The hosts have struggled this season, finding themselves just outside the drop zone with the midpoint of the season approaching. Everton, though, picked up a valuable 1-1 draw against defending champions Manchester City at the weekend, with Demaria Gray scoring a stunning leveller just after the hour mark.
Brighton, meanwhile, have had mixed results of late as they continue to adapt to life under manager Roberto De Zerbi. They lost 4-2 at home to league leaders Arsenal in their last game and were perhaps fortunate not to have lost by a larger margin despite dominating possession.
Everton are on a run of back-to-back winless outings and are without a win in their last six competitive outings. They have lost three of their last four games at Goodison Park and could struggle here.
Brighton, meanwhile, have lost three of their last four games and will look to bounce back. They have, however, been solid on the road recently and should come out on top.
Prediction: Everton 1-2 Brighton & Hove Albion

Everton will be without midfielder Amadou Onana after the Belgian picked up his fifth booking of the season at Man City.
Abdoulaye Doucoure or Tom Davies will be vying to take his place in the side here at Goodison, while Anthony Gordon may struggle to get back into the starting XI after missing the New Year’s Eve draw with illness.
Lampard has a decision to make about whether to stick with the 5-3-2 formation which worked so well at the Etihad or revert to a more offensive 4-5-1 against weaker opponents.
All five defenders were solid and it will be difficult to drop any of them, especially with limited, in-form attacking options.
Danny Welbeck and Adam Webster missed Brighton’s game with Arsenal, and while the former is closer to a return, both are big doubts.
