West Ham vs Everton Prediction: Value in a fourth consecutive draw in this fixture

West Ham United sit just two points above the Premier League relegation zone heading into their home clash with Everton on Saturday (15:00 BST). The Irons have lost just two of their previous nine outings in the top flight as they look to avoid dropping down to the Championship for the first time in 14 years.
Everton have a shot of qualifying for Europe, so this will be no easy contest for the Hammers. Below you will find my West Ham vs Everton predictions, aided by the latest team news and match odds from Betfred.

Team News
West Ham have no injury concerns to trouble them ahead of this fixture, so Nuno Espirito Santo can field his strongest XI.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka will be pushing to start ahead of Kyle Walker-Peters at right-back, while Valentin Castallenos and Pablo Felipe should feature in attack again.
Callum Wilson could have an impact from the bench as he has scored seven goals in his past eight appearances against Everton.
Jarrad Branthwaite (hamstring) has joined Jack Grealish (foot) in the Everton treatment room, with both players ruled out for the remainder of the campaign.
Striker Beto should be okay to be involved on Saturday despite picking up a head injury in last week's defeat against Liverpool.
West Ham vs Everton Predicted Lineups
- West Ham: Hermansen; Wan-Bissaka, Mavropanos, Disasi, Diouf; Bowen, Soucek, Fernandes, Summerville; Pablo; Castellanos
- Everton: Pickford; O'Brien, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko; Garner, Gueye; McNeil, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye; Beto
West Ham are a 7/5 bet to come out on top and win successive home games in the league for the first time since November.
Everton have won four of their past seven away trips in the Premier League and they are 15/8 to come away with the three points.
The draw is available at 5/2, which was the outcome in September's reverse fixture.
Beto has five goals in six games for the Toffees and he is the 7/4 favourite to score anytime on Saturday.
West Ham vs Everton Stats
- The last 3 meetings have been draws
- West Ham have drawn 4 of their last 8 PL games
- 4 of Everton's past 5 outings in the top flight have seen both teams score
Match Result - Draw @ 5/2
Both sides have much to play for in these final five matches and so I am expecting a tight contest at the London Stadium. West Ham have improved steadily since Nuno was appointed in September but they need to have a strong finish to the campaign if they wish to retain their top-flight status.
Everton have a chance of playing European football next year, their only problem is that so do a number of other clubs. I don't think there is much to separate these two sides ahead of their Saturday tussle, so the draw at 5/2 (implied probability of 28.6%) offers good value to punters.
After all, the past three head-to-heads have been stalemates, while West Ham have drawn four of their eight most recent outings in the league.

Both Teams To Score - Yes @ 8/11
There are players on both teams who can have an impact in the final third. For that reason, I also think Both Teams To Score - Yes is worth backing. This has been a winning selection in four of Everton's last five road trips in the Premier League.
This has also been a successful bet in five of West Ham's past seven home fixtures in the top flight. The previous two meetings between these clubs have also produced goals at both ends.
