Dyche seeking to match Carlo Ancelotti record

It feels somehwat strange to remember that Carlo Ancelotti was once in charge of Everton, and it wasn't actually that long ago!

The current Real Madrid boss has won the Champions League again since departing Goodison Park in 2021.

Should the Toffees win today then it would be their fourth consecutive Premier League victory. Ancelotti did that last with Everton when they claimed four back-to-back wins in December 2020.

Teams have arrived at Turf Moor

Both Burnley and Everton have arrived at Turf Moore ahead of the action getting underway at 5.30pm. A win tonight is vital for both teams.

Burnley are desperately searching for a third Premier League win of the season and have shown improvement in their last three games.

Meanwhile, Everton have taken maximum points from their matches over the same length of time and becoming one of the league's most current in-form teams.

Good afternoon and thanks for joining us

Hello and welcome to tonight's Premier League coverage of Burnley's clash against Everton. The task at hand for the hosts is a simple one.

A win is needed to give them any hope of climbing off the bottom of the table and with Sheffield United currently drawing at Stamford Bridge, a draw or win against the Toffees will also seem them leapfrog Chris Wilder's side.

Kick off is at 5.30pm and before that we have plenty to cover.
