Always use EntityFunctions.TruncateTime() for both x.DateTimeStart and currentDate. such as :

var eventsCustom = eventCustomRepository.FindAllEventsCustomByUniqueStudentReference(userDevice.UniqueStudentReference).Where(x => EntityFunctions.TruncateTime(x.DateTimeStart) == EntityFunctions.TruncateTime(currentDate));
