Match Facts

Goal Drought: Everton have only scored more than once in one of the last 22 Barclays Premier League games against Arsenal.

Struggling: Arsenal have won just three of their last 10 Barclays Premier League matches (W3 D4 L3), taking just 13 points from the last 30 available.

Advantage Arsenal?: The Toffees have lost eight and won none of the last 13 Premier League games against the Gunners, but the last three meetings have been drawn.

Pointless Fact: Mesut Ӧzil’s last two goals have come against Everton, one in the Premier League in December and one in the FA Cup victory in March.

Suffering: Everton’s record home (1-6 Aug 2009) and record away and overall (0-7 May 2005) Premier League defeats have come at the hands of Arsenal.

Clinical: Lukas Podolski has the best chance conversion of any player with 10+ goals in the Premier League over the last two seasons, scoring with 33% of his attempts.

Tight: No team has ever had 60 or more points after 31 games of a Premier League season and failed to finish in the top four. Everton and Arsenal have both exceeded this tally.

Consistent: 60 points after 31 games is Everton’s best ever total in Premier League history, surpassing the 57 they had mustered at this stage in 2007-08.

Late bloomers: Everton have won 15 points from goals scored in the final 10 minutes of matches this season, more than any team in the division.

Mildly Interesting: Arsenal are the only team in the Premier League not to have an opposition player sent off against them this season.

Odds: Everton are favourites at 2.40, with Arsenal at 2.80. A draw is paying a tidy 3.40. You can check out more sports betting here
