The game has quite an edge to it this week as both Managers, David Moyes and Paul Ince have been installed amongst the favourites in the Premier League Manager sack race, this follows reports about Moyes being unhappy at the lack of money to strengthen his squad at Everton and further reports that indicates that Ince has had his attitude questioned by some of his senior players.

Whatever the result this weekend, the losing Manager can expect further speculation concerning his future. The truth is in a game like this with two experienced clubs engaging in the first match of the season, a draw is very often the outcome. The odds for the draw is around the 9/4 mark and represent a reasonable price. However, we take Everton to grab the three points, not only because they are the home team, but also because there is every likelihood of some truth behind the rumours at Blackburn and they may not turn up for the game with the right attitude to win. The odds are Evens Everton, 3/1 Blackburn and 23/10 the draw.
