West Ham
The team played their last league match at home but lost 0-1 to Newcastle.

Graham Potter's team has the same number of points as Everton but trails due to a significantly worse goal difference.

Everton vs. West Ham: Match Prediction
This is a clash between table neighbors, both equally distanced from the European competition spots and the relegation zone. Considering how poorly the teams in the relegation zone have been playing this season, even 33 points might be enough to secure Premier League status. Both teams are well aware of this and will strive to entertain their fans, aiming for goals if not high league positions.
Everton is in good form. Since David Moyes took charge, the Liverpool side has remained unbeaten in the league, scoring in all eight Premier League matches under his management. West Ham lacks consistency but rarely leaves the field without scoring, even away. In their last 13 away Premier League matches, the London side failed to score only against Nottingham Forest, who have the third-best defense in the league.
My prediction – Both teams to score – yes
