On Saturday, Everton will host Cardiff City in a crucial match as they aim to secure a spot in European competitions next season. Currently sitting in seventh place in the Premier League standings, Everton is just five points behind Tottenham Hotspur and has two games in hand.
After suffering two consecutive defeats against Tottenham and Chelsea, Everton bounced back with a 2-0 victory against West Ham United. Ahead of their clash with Cardiff, Everton’s striker Romelu Lukaku expressed confidence in his team’s abilities.
“We are hungry and we are not afraid of anyone,” Lukaku stated on the club’s website. He acknowledged Cardiff as a strong team with a talented manager but emphasized Everton’s readiness to take charge of the match. Lukaku, who has been linked with a move to Atletico Madrid, highlighted the competitive nature of the Premier League, where any team can defeat another.
However, Lukaku expressed Everton’s belief in their potential, particularly when playing at home. With determination and confidence, Everton will aim to secure a crucial victory against Cardiff City in their pursuit of European qualification.
