The Everton Toffees and QPR are playing live on the Barclays English Premier League schedule and the game on Monday is from Goodison Park and will be on TV from the NBC Sports Network channel and online streaming from the NBCSN Live extra as Queens Park Rangers get into action for the final match of the EPL week at 3 pm ET and 8 pm local time.
Everton comes in after a loss against Manchester City and now they have Queens Park before a matchup with Southampton and later in the month the team plays Stoke City. The busy December schedule is a good chance for Everton to move up in the standings, as they are currently at number 13 in the EPL table standings and they have yet to win a game this month. The team won over West Ham in their last victory and since that they have had a draw with Hull City and the loss with Man City away.
Everton defender John Stones may feature in the match, while Gareth Barry will be out while dealing with a suspension. This is a big match for Everton, as they need to take care of business at home and this a matchup with one of the worst teams in the Premier League. QPR has had some success here and with the way Everton has played they can't take anything for granted on Monday night. Queens Park has won three of the six games in the EPL at Goodison and they will be looking to do it again.
Everton really needs to get things going heading into the December schedule, as they have won just six points over their last six matchups. The team has three draws and two losses in that time with just one win and this is a good chance to get some points, especially at home. The team has won only two of the last eight games at Goodison and in that time they also have three losses and three draws.
QPR has won two of the last three games this season, but they have not been good on the road and they have lost all seven of those games this season. The team has tied Bolton for losing their first seven games away and they can continue the streak with a loss here against Everton. After playing next against Southampton the team has some tough matchups, including with Liverpool next year in February and also against Man City and that will be at Goodison.
Chelsea continues to lead the league standings and Everton has the chance to move up with a win, as they one point back of Aston Villa and Stoke City. The team can also get into a tie on points with Liverpool if they win and they are currently in 10th on the league table and all the teams ahead of Everton have played in 16 games and they are about to reach that total.
