Everton vs Burnley Preview
- Date – Saturday, April 06, 2024
- Kick-off Time – 03:00 pm GMT
- Venue – Goodison Park
Everton will be facing relegation-threatened Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon at Goodison Park. The Toffees will be looking for a win to take themselves further away from the relegation zone as they are sitting 16th in the league standings.
Sean Dyche’s side has been poor in front of the goal this season, their goal tally doesn’t look any good as they are only above Sheffield United with 31 goals.
They will then take on Burnley, who are languishing at the bottom of the Premier League table. The Clarets have only one paltry win to show from their last six away games in the Premier League. They have also struggled in front of goal, scoring just 32 goals in 31 games. Despite their unconvincing form this campaign, they have picked up six points from their last four league fixtures.

Everton vs Burnley Prediction
The Toffees are certainly the heavy favorites coming into this fixture even though they are without a win in their last 13 league games and are close to breaking the all-time record of 14 games, which happened before World War II. Sean Dyche’s men are 16th in the league standings and are four points clear of Luton Town in the relegation zone.
Meanwhile, relegation-threatened Burnley have struggled to gather any consistent form this season. They have been pretty quiet in front of goal, scoring just 32 goals in 31 games. Defensively they have been worse than Everton, conceding 66 goals and keeping only two clean sheets.
