Everton host Burnley in the Premier League this week – can the Toffees finish the season with a flourish?
Everton are enjoying a strong season to a largely underwhelming 2018/19 campaign ahead of their clash with Burnley.
The Toffees have lingered in the bottom half for much of the season despite spending big money last summer.
However, Marco Silva’s men have racked up some tremendous victories in recent weeks to haul themselves into contention for the ‘best of the rest’ positions.
Premier League fixtures and TV coverage
In their last four home games, Everton have beaten Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United without conceding a goal, while they also held Liverpool to a goalless draw.
They have vastly improved from a defensive standpoint and will be hoping for another tidy win at Goodison Park this weekend.
Burnley have secured survival following a flourish of their own in March and April.
Sean Dyche’s side came close to a major upset after narrowly losing 1-0 to Manchester City at Turf Moor last weekend.

Let’s be honest, neither side has anything to play for here.
Yes, an extra million in the bank per position is helpful for the owners, but will that really motivate players from either team to go all-in this weekend?
That said, Everton will be determined to end the season on a high to offer plenty of encouragement to push on next season, and their recent upturn in form is likely to help them achieve that.
