Jamie Carragher has made his prediction ahead of Everton’s match against Nottingham Forest at Goodison Park on Sunday (April 21).
Sean Dyche must recover from a devastating 6-0 defeat to Chelsea. With six games remaining, his team is two points above the relegation zone.
The Toffees and Nuno Espirito Santo’s side are separated by only one point, therefore a victory in this six-pointer will be critical in the relegation struggle.
Carragher, a Sky Sports commentator, predicted on Super 6 (19 April) that Everton will win a critical 1-0 home game against Forest.
Everton’s win over Nottingham Forest might be key.
The Toffees are in relegation trouble as a result of multiple point deductions and poor performance.
Dyche’s side are in 16th place, one point ahead of Forest in 17th, and two points below Luton Town in the relegation zone.
The Hatters will host Brentford on Saturday (20 April). If results do not go their way, Everton may be in the bottom three by the end of the weekend.
They cannot afford to let other teams decide their fate at Goodison Park and must work hard to capture all three points from Forest.
The Toffees’ remaining matchups include games against quality sides such as Liverpool and Arsenal, where points will not be easy to come by.
If Santo’s side wins on Merseyside, Dyche will have to consider games against Brentford, Luton, and Sheffield United, all of which are crucial.
A win on Sunday (21 April) will lift a massive weight off everyone’s shoulders at Goodison.
