West Ham face Everton on April 25, 2026, at the London Stadium. West Ham are fighting to avoid relegation while Everton seeks to maintain their European aspirations. The stakes are high for both teams.
Currently, West Ham sit 17th in the Premier League, just two points above the relegation zone. They have won only three of their last 17 home games against Everton. On the other hand, Everton has won 29 Premier League matches against West Ham overall, more than any other opponent.
Each of the last three meetings between these clubs ended in a draw. However, West Ham are unbeaten in their last five home games and have kept two clean sheets in their last three matches at home. This defensive strength could be crucial against an Everton side that has earned 25 away points this season — their best since the 2020-21 campaign.
Beto has scored three goals in his last ten league games for Everton. His performance will be vital as they aim for a strong finish to the season. Meanwhile, West Ham’s top goalscorer, Valentin Castellanos, has netted four times this season. Jarrod Bowen also stands out with six assists.
David Moyes, West Ham’s manager, acknowledged the importance of this match. “Going back to West Ham is always special, but the focus is entirely on us,” he stated. His experience will be put to the test as his team battles to stay clear of the relegation zone.
Everton will miss Jarrad Branthwaite for the rest of the season due to injury. His absence could impact their defensive lineup as they prepare for this crucial clash.
The outcome of this match could significantly alter both teams’ trajectories as they approach the end of the season. With relegation looming for West Ham and European dreams alive for Everton, every point counts.
