The small gap between Everton and the relegation spots is rapidly narrowing – the Blues are not scoring enough, and with that their chances of staying out of harm’s way are reducing too.
Their hosts today are AFC Bournemouth who are in contrasting manner quite enjoying their season, and sit in seventh place just behind Premier League defending champions Manchester City.

Everton were cruising to a win against Bournemouth at Goodison Park on the last day of August, leading 2-0 after two goals before the hour mark. But with less than five minutes to play, an extraordinary folding effort ensued as the Toffees proceeded to concede three goals in the next nine minutes including time added on to lose 3-2. There’s a feeling that the Blues have not yet recovered from that trauma quite yet.
The last time the Cherries hosted the Toffees was back in March when they beat the Blues 2-1, with Beto getting the lone goal.
