West Ham lost only one of their last five visits to Goodison, winning three, with Everton only managing to win five of their last 12 home games against the Toffees.
Everton vs West Ham preview
Last week was all about Graham Potter in the online sphere, but he will not be prominent at Hill Dickinson Stadium on Monday night. That's because, on Saturday morning, the shock news was announced that he had been sacked as West Ham United manager after just 25 games in charge. Given that he'd won only six, his departure is no surprise, but the timing very much was.
Last weekend, the Hammers were beaten 2-1 by Crystal Palace, meaning they've lost four out of five matches to start this season, including all three at the London Stadium. Five members of Potter's coaching staff have departed too, with Nuno Espírito Santo the front-runner to take over, but it remains to be seen who will take charge of this Monday night trip to Merseyside.
It is fitting that West Ham's opponents here are Everton, considering they're led by David Moyes, who oversaw a period of stability and success in East London, but was hounded out; a case of be careful what you wish for perhaps? Considering what is going on with their visitors, the home side surely have to fancy their chances of a victory at Hill Dickinson Stadium, even after a disappointing week.
First, the Toffees were narrowly beaten by Liverpool in the Merseyside derby, going 2-0 down inside half an hour, only for Idrissa Gana Gueye's lovely strike to halve the deficit, but they could not find an equaliser. Then, last Tuesday night, Evertonians were very annoyed about Moyes' decision to heavily rotate for an EFL Cup tie, considering it's three decades since they last won a trophy, paying the price as the Blues were beaten 2-0 by bottom of the table Wolves at Molineux. Ahead of this one, Everton are still unbeaten in their new home at Bramley-Moore Dock, yet to even concede a goal across three outings, so will they maintain both records when the chaotic Hammers visit on Monday?

Everton team news
As alluded to, David Moyes made seven changes in the Carabao Cup, with none of those who started against Wolves doing much to make a case for more minutes.
It will once again be James Tarkowski and Michael Keane in defence, with Jarrad Branthwaite sidelined due to a hamstring issue, while Moyes could revert to the front four that started at Anfield, all of whom were thrown on in the EFL Cup, including August player of the month Jack Grealish.
Having been cautioned in each of Everton's last four Premier League matches, his booking in the derby particularly controversial, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is one yellow card away from a suspension.
Everton predicted lineup vs West Ham United: (4-3-3): Pickford; O'Brien, Keane, Tarkowski, Garner; Gana Gueye, Iroegbunam, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish, Ndiaye; Beto.
Everton player to watch vs West Ham
Iliman Ndiaye scored both the last goal at Goodison as well as the first at Hill Dickinson Stadium, netting 13 times for the club in total, so will he be the Monday night hero?
West Ham team news
Given the abrupt change in management, West Ham's lineup is difficult to forecast. In goal, summer signing Mads Hermansen started the first four Premier League matches, before Alphonse Areola was reinstated against Crystal Palace, so it'll be interesting to see who is donning the gloves.
After reportedly falling out with Graham Potter, it'll be fascinating to see if Aaron Wan-Bissaka is put straight back in, while Jean-Clair Todibo, Soungoutou Magassa and Niclas Füllkrug are among the leading candidates to come into the lineup. Lastly, this is the second match of Tomáš Souček's three-game suspension.
West Ham United predicted lineup vs Everton: (4-3-3): Hermansen; Wan-Bissaka, Todibo, Kilman, Diouf; Magassa, Fernandes, Paquetá, Bowen, Summerville; Wilson.

Even in troubled times, Jarrod Bowen remains West Ham's talisman, on target last weekend, while all three he has managed against Everton have come at the London Stadium, so can he change that fact on Merseyside?
