Everton vs Burnley
English Premier League
Date: Saturday, 15th April 2017
Kick-off at 15:00 UK / 16:00 CET
Venue: Goodison Park, Liverpool.
In 2017, Lukaku (13 goals from 42 shots) has scored more Premier League goals than opponents Burnley (11 goals from 146 shots).
The Belgian is also outscoring Middlesbrough this season, with his tally of 23 one better than the struggling north-east side.
Everton can leapfrog Arsenal into sixth if they avoid defeat, with Arsenal not playing until Monday when they travel to Boro on Monday Night Football.
Burnley meanwhile are still chasing their first away league win of the season, having drawn four and lost 12 - they are the only side yet to secure three points away from home.
Team news
There are no fresh injury concerns for Everton, while Ashley Williams is set to return from suspension after he was sent off at Manchester United earlier this month.
Everton will remain without Ramiro Funes Mori, Yannick Bolasie, Muhamed Besic (all knee), James McCarthy (hamstring), Seamus Coleman (leg) and Aaron Lennon.
Burnley's Johann Berg Gudmundsson featured in a midweek friendly for Burnley's Under-23s and scored twice, but Sean Dyche is expected to give the midfielder another week before returning to league action.
Steven Defour meanwhile has been passed fit to face the Toffees.
Everton
The hosts are sitting in the 7th position with 54 points, same as Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal. Since The Gunners are in a slump, they will be motivated to grab the full prize on Saturday in order to reach the spot that leads directly into UEFA Europa League.
Their home form is brilliant – Everton managed to win the last 6 games at Goodison Park. In those six outings, they were winning both at half-time and the full-time.
Burnley
The guests are the worst team in visits this season, without a doubt. In 16 away matches, they managed to earn four points; they are yet to win, while they only managed to draw four games. Burnley scored only 9 while allowing 30 goals in Premier League visits this season.
Despite the horrible away record, Burnley are 12th in the standings with 36 points collected. In their last four matches, there were 2 or fewer goals seen.
Everton vs Burnley: Head-to-head
This season’s reverse went to Burnley since the final result at Turf Moor was 2-1 in favor of hosts. At Goodison, both meetings went to Everton.
Everton vs Burnley: Prediction
The hosts must earn three points in order to stay in the race for top 6, especially against a poor away side. It is very probably we witness a goal in the both halves from Koeman’s men.
