Everton secured a 2-1 victory at Wolverhampton Wanderers last Tuesday to clinch their 10th victory of the 2020-21 Premier League campaign, and they are just five points behind leaders Manchester United.

The Toffees have a game in hand after yesterday’s trip to Aston Villa was postponed, and manager Carlo Ancelotti will fancy his side’s chances of finishing in the top-four following an impressive start to the season.

The title race for the season is expected to be a keenly-contested one given that very little separates the top-six, and Everton could be considered as one of the dark horses.

A victory at Villa Park had Sunday’s game gone ahead would have put them in fourth place and level on points with second-placed Manchester City and third-placed Leicester City, but Sky Sports pundit Roy Keane does not think that they have a chance of challenging for the title when asked about it.

“I wouldn’t be including Everton, I’d say forget Everton in terms of winning the title,” the United legend said.

“They have done great, I’m surprised they are up there where they are, but I don’t think they will last the pace.”
