Comments on the match Everton vs Nottingham, 10:00 p.m. December 6: Dyche – Moyes fate and the match of turning points

VHO - Commentary on the match Everton vs Nottingham, round 15 of the Premier League, will understanding the old team help coach Sean Dyche and his students bring home points?

Everton vs Nottingham form

Compared to last season, Everton had a much more impressive performance. All thanks to the strong mark of David Moyes.

The Scottish tactician has breathed new life into the club since returning to Goodison Park in the early days of 2025 and helped the Toffees stay in the top flight.

It is important to note that during the first 20 rounds of last season, Everton never surpassed 15th place and were always worried about being pushed down to the bottom of the table. But this season, the position of the Liverpool team is much different.

After 14 rounds, Everton climbed to 10th place, creating a gap of up to 9 points to the group of 3 teams at the bottom of the table. Thanks to that, the mentality of Pickford and his teammates is very comfortable and excited at the moment.

In the last 4 appearances, despite often being ranked as "underdogs", The Toffees still won 3 and lost only 1. In particular, 2 consecutive away wins with the same score of 1-0 against Man United and Bournemouth certainly brought great confidence to the port city team.

On the other side of the front line, Nottingham are also living the best days of this year's season. Leaving behind a rather disastrous start, the team at City Ground seems to have found inspiration again under the reign of new coach Sean Dyche.

Since taking over from the "disaster" Ange Postecoglou, the 54-year-old has quickly revived his new team with a series of impressive results. After a total of 9 matches in charge, Sean Dyche helped Forest win 5, draw 2 and lose only 2.

The English coach is certainly no stranger to Everton. Sean Dyche was the one who struggled with the Toffees in the first half of last season before being sacked and handed over his position to his colleague Moyes. So, the upcoming encounter will more or less have a sense of fate.

Everton won 3/4 recent rounds

Nottingham are currently in a relegation battle. The visitors are only 16th, three points clear of the nearest relegation zone. Accumulating more points, especially against opponents who are not rated much better, will become the priority.

Everton may have been playing well recently, but their home form has not been very good. In their last 6 home games at Hill Dickinson, the home team has only won 2, drawn 2, and lost 2. On the other hand, Nottingham are on a 3-match unbeaten run away from home, with 2 wins and 1 draw.
