Everton and Burnley will face each other in the Premier League this coming weekend. The match between the Toffees and the Clarets at Goodison Park is slated to kick off at 5:30pm UK time on Saturday and promises to be an entertaining game of football.

Everton

Everton are having a good season overall and are very much in the running for the Champions League places in the Premier League table. Carlo Ancelotti’s side are sixth in the standings at the moment with 46 points from 27 matches, four points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.

The Merseyside club will head into the match against Burnley at Goodison Park on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Chelsea away from home at Stamford Bridge in London. The performance of the Toffees left much to be desired, and manager Ancelotti will want his players to step up his game.

Team News:

Richarlison and Dominic Calvert-Lewin are set to start again for Everton.

Burnley

Burnley are having a disappointing season and are still very much in danger of going down to the Championship at the end of the season. Sean Dyche’s side are 15th in the Premier League table at the moment with 30 points from 28 matches, four points above third-from-bottom Fulham.

The Clarets will head into the match against Everton away from home at Goodison Park on the back of a 1-1 draw with Arsenal at Turf Moor in the Premier League. That followed a 1-1 draw with Leicester City at home in the league.

Team News:

Chris Wood scored against Arsenal and will lead the line against Everton.

Key Factors to Consider

• Everton have scored 39 goals in 27 Premier League games this season.
• Burnley have scored 20 goals in 28 Premier League games this season.
• Everton have conceded 35 goals in 27 Premier League matches this campaign.
• Burnley have conceded 36 goals in 28 Premier League matches this campaign.
• Burnley drew 1-1 with Everton at Turf Moor in the Premier League in December 2020.

Conclusion

Burnley will be encouraged by their draw with Arsenal last weekend, but Everton will be determined to bounce back from the defeat to Chelsea. The Toffees have the better team and should eke out a win from the encounter.
