Everton and Arsenal will face each other at Goodison Park in the Premier League this weekend.

Ronald Koeman, manager of Everton looks on before the Premier League match between Brighton and Hove Albion and Everton at Amex Stadium on October 15, 2017 in Brighton, England.

Former Liverpool and Manchester United striker Michael Owen has predicted on Betvictor.com that Alexandre Lacazette will score for Arsenal against Everton this weekend.

Arsenal will take on Everton away from home at Goodison Park in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

Both the Gunners and the Toffees are in Europa League action on Thursday evening.

Former Newcastle United striker Owen has backed Lacazette to score for the Gunners.

The 26-year-old striker has scored four goals in seven Premier League starts for Arsenal so far this season.

The France international joined the North London outfit from Ligue 1 outfit Lyon in the summer transfer window for a fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £46.5 million.

Owen has also commented on the current situation of Everton manager Ronald Koeman.

Koeman is under pressure at the moment due to the Toffees’ disappointing start to the season.

Everton are struggling to pick up wins, having been expected to challenge for a top-four finish in the Premier League at the start of the season.

“Ronald Koeman is a man under pressure at Goodison, with the Dutchman now as short as 4/7 to be the Next Premier League Manager to Leave his Post after Craig Shakespeare’s exit from Leicester in the week,” Owen wrote on Betvictor.com.

“He could be fighting for his job on Sunday afternoon with Everton 3/1 underdogs when hosting Arsenal on Merseyside.

“Neither side has been convincing this term but Arsene Wenger’s side remain blessed with a wealth of attacking options in the final third and their new talisman Alexander Lacazette is fancied to score on his debut at Goodison.”
