[Football- England 'Premier League'] 23.4/ 21:00 Arsenal- Everton

Reasoning: Arsenal v Everton is a big game for the middle of the table, Everton will want to win this to keep in touch with their opposition around european league spaces, Arsenal are in a similar boat. After a dreadful season they are aiming to maybe qualify again for the Europa league. Because of this, it's a game neither can really afford to lose - they will likely look elsewhere for their victories in the coming weeks and would both be happy to see this out, meaning we expect a low scoring affair.
Arsenals 1-1 draw with Fulham showed a tired team, and maybe on that manager Arteta is keen to steer away from conceding so many goals, maybe at the expense of scoring some of their own, combined with Arsenals europa league game next week, I suspect they will field a team that can see this one through and play a safe defensive game.
Everton on the other hand started the season with a bang, but lately haven't quite been able to find that consistency, not winning in their last 6 with 3 U2.5 out of their last 5 games. Their matches in the last few weeks/months have been relatively low scoring compared to the rest of the league, similar to the above, they won't want to lose this game as it would give Arsenal enough to potentially leap frog them and take their Europa league place.
I suspect an extremely cagey affair, but as always with U2.5, the last thing you want is an early goal, specially as then the losing team will go guns blazing.
