Everton v Watford – Monday Night Football MNF Coverage of the Premier League clash at Goodison Park. The home side has emerged victorious in each of the last four meetings, and rather remarkably, two of those contests finished 1-0, while the other two both produced a 3-2 scoreline. This encounter is expected to have a little extra added spice given it is the first meeting between the sides since ex-Watford boss Marco Silva was appointed Everton manager, which occurred after Watford made an official complaint to the Premier League for what they deemed to be an illegal approach last season for their then-manager. Speculation at the time of the Toffee’s desire to lure Silva away from the Hornets coincided with a dramatic loss of form, something that rankled with those connected to Hertfordshire-based club and led to Silva being dismissed, paving the way for his Everton tenure to begin during the summer
