David Moyes' return to Everton, 11 years after his initial departure, was met with skepticism. The team was struggling financially and barely avoiding relegation. However, under Moyes' guidance, Everton has undergone a significant transformation, now finding themselves in contention for a European spot.
A win against Liverpool on Sunday would bring them within two points of fifth place, guaranteeing a Champions League return. Since Moyes' return, Everton has performed remarkably well away from home, with only Arsenal and Manchester City earning more points on the road.
The team's ability to grind out results at tough stadiums has been impressive, but their home form remains a concern. With just six Premier League wins at their new home, Everton needs to address this issue to sustain their European push.
The contrast between their home and away performances is stark, with the team playing more direct football on the road and struggling with possession-based football at home. To succeed, Moyes may need to adopt an away-style approach in all games, starting with the upcoming derby against Liverpool.
