No away-day blues 

It's fair to say that David Moyes has experienced a fair few away trips during his managerial career, but as he takes his Toffees side to The Emirates this weekend, he boasts an impressive record since returning to Merseyside. 

Only Arsenal have won more matches on the road than Everton since Moyes took over 14 months ago, and they head to North London on Saturday having won four of their last five away from the Hill Dickinson Stadium and eight in total across 2025-26.

That run includes wins at Villa Park and against Newcastle as well as a victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford, a ground where they'd only tasted victory once previously since 1992. 

It's a stark contrast to their home form, where the Toffees have faced a sticky time of it at their new home, but their approach away from familiar surroundings is proving to be a winning formula. 

Everton don't mind conceding possession and having less of the ball, because it's seen them concede the least amount of goals away from home other than Arsenal, and they are yet to concede from a corner on their travels too - a tool which will come in handy against the Gunners. 

European push 

Everton's away form has played a part in seeing Moyes' men sitting on the cusp of an unlikely European place. With nine games left to play, they sit a point off 7th, which is likely to be a Europa Conference League berth, and former Toffees striker Jermaine Beckford believes the club could be back in Europe next season. 

"Yes, I can see them qualifying," he told DAZN News exclusively, thanks to Covers.com, who provide a detailed list of sports betting sites. 

"You look at where Everton are in the league, eighth in the league, they've been playing decent football, not fantastic, decent football. 

"Defensively, David Moyes organises his teams very, very well, very organised, very structured, very disciplined, very physical.

"We've seen that the back end of last season and this season, how well Everton have done. The only area that was lacking was up top in the final third, but we are starting to see that a little bit more, a few more goals, so I don't see why not." 

Among the final nine games, Everton travel to the team directly above them right now, Brentford next month, in what will be a huge match in the race for European places, but given their away record will fancy their chances at the Gtech.

Key to victory in London 

First, though, is their trip to the other side of London, looking for a first win at The Emirates since 2021 and trying to inflict only a second home defeat on Mikel Arteta this season. 

It's a massive turnaround for a club that's become accustomed to fighting at the other end of the table and dealing with points deductions in recent campaigns. 

Much of their upturn has been in the form of key players like James Tarkowski, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, and James Garner, who have been tipped for a possible England call-up ahead of the March friendlies. 

Garner, in particular, has been central to their success, ranking first among the squad for possession won, tackles, chances created, and interceptions across the campaign. 

His match-up with Declan Rice this weekend will be one of the game's most interesting factors and determine if Garner is ready to step up and battle the Arsenal man for an international place. 

It won't be the only one either, as the meeting on Saturday teatime has all the makings of a title nail-biter as Moyes and his merry men look to throw another twist in the championship race and boost their own path back into European contention.
