BetGenius backs Everton or Draw (Double Chance) at 74% confidence — a solid call. Total goals: Under 2.5 Goals.
Everton welcome Wolves to Merseyside in the EFL Cup Round of 32, with both sides looking to build on positive cup momentum. Everton enter this clash on a five-match unbeaten run across all competitions, having comfortably dispatched Preston 4-0 in their previous cup outing before securing draws against Bournemouth, Manchester United, and Tottenham.
Wolves reached this stage after a 2-0 away victory over Sheffield Wednesday, but their recent defensive form has shown signs of vulnerability. The visitors have conceded six goals across their last two fixtures, including a 4-2 defeat to West Ham and a 2-2 draw at Birmingham.
Recent head-to-head encounters suggest a tightly contested affair, with their most recent meeting ending in a 1-1 draw. Everton will look to capitalize on home advantage and defensive stability against a Wolves side coping with multiple defensive and midfield injuries.
