Hull City have won both of their starts this season by margins of two goals (2-0 v Manchester United) and one goal (1-0 v Coventry City). Everton's solitary victory was a 2-0 margin over Crystal Palace, paired with a 1-1 draw against Bournemouth.

With Everton unbeaten and holding a tight defensive record of their own (1 goal conceded across two matches), taking Everton on the +1 line gets a big tick for punters expecting a close, hard-fought affair.
