Sean Dyche returns to Turf Moor as his Everton side take on Burnley in Saturday’s late Premier League kick off. The Toffees have won their last three league games to move out of the relegation zone after being hit with a 10-point deduction for breaking finanical rules.

Last time out Everton defeated Chelsea 2-0 thanks to goals from Abdoulaye Doucoure and Lewis Dobbin and Dyche will be hoping his side can continue their winning streak against his old club this evening.

Burnley, meanwhile, have taken four points from their last three matches and are seemingly finding their feet after a difficult start to the season. The Clarets are five points from safety with today’s clash being particularly important for their chances of survival.

Everton have now scored eight unanswered goals in the Premier League. Despite their recent 10-point deduction, the Toffees have certainly not let it affect their performance levels.

Everton counter as McNeil leads the charge with a powerful run from inside his own half. The wing-back goes for goal from 20 yards out, but his effort goes into the stands.

Burnley seek that response and Odobert feeds the ball into Rodriguez at the near post. The striker looks to turn and get a shot away, but Tarkowski is there to block.

While the home fans were stunned by Onana's header, they attempt to rally their players with plenty of noise echoing around the stadium. Can the hosts respond?
