The 2023/24 Premier League season is under way and you can follow every game and every goal right here with The Independent.
Brighton and Hove Albion host Everton on Saturday with both teams keen to find consistency sooner rather than later - though for very different reasons, with the Seagulls chasing Europe and the Toffees simply trying to avoid relegation.
A points deduction hasn’t helped there and Sean Dyche’s side may yet face another before the campaign is out, but they come into this game outside the bottom three on goal difference.

Brighton & Hove Albion vs Everton
Dunk powered in a 95th-minute header to help 10-man Brighton earn a point against Everton in a 1-1 draw at the Amex Stadium. The Seagulls stopped Everton from having a shot in the first half but couldn't break the deadlock with an xG of 0.78. Adingra and Welbeck had goal-bound efforts deflect off target after some last-ditch defending from the Toffees, with Dunk heading two tame shots straight at Pickford. Despite their dominance before the break, it was Everton that took the lead. The visitors only created an xG of 0.27 but broke the deadlock through Branthwaite. He got onto a loose ball inside the box and blasted his effort into the top-right corner. Everything looked like it was going wrong for the Seagulls after Gilmour was sent off for a high tackle on Onana, but they levelled in stoppage time to extend their unbeaten run at home to 11 matches. Gross' right-footed cross found Dunk, who headed the ball past Pickford. Brighton will now turn their attention to the FA Cup, where they host Wolves. As for Everton, they miss the chance to go three points clear of the drop zone and face West Ham next. That's all, goodbye.

Everton load the box and are continuing to put the pressure on Brighton. Harrison collects possession on the right side of the box, switching the ball onto his left foot before whipping his shot wide of the left post. He had options in the middle, but went alone and missed the target.

Brighton’s Gross has been involved in 11 goals in his last 14 Premier League games (two goals and nine assists), including four in his last three. His 10 assists overall this term is the most ever by a Brighton player in a single Premier League campaign, while the last German player to reach double figures in a season was Leroy Sane in 2018-19 (10).

Gross is over a free-kick inside Everton's half, but his delivery into the box is poor, allowing Pickford to collect it without pressure.
