Burnley vs Everton live updates! — By Joe Prince-Wright
So close to a winner for Burnley!
Jaidon Anthony plays in Zian Flemming and he’s clean through and slots past Jordan Pickford... but the ball hits the post and goes across goal and out. Burnley can’t believe it. They almost take the lead in the 90th minute. Flemming should finish that chance.
Dubravka denies Barry
Another fine stop from the Burnley goalkeeper, as he denies the sub Barry. Burnley then hack it clear.
Barry, Rohl on
Everton have switched things up with Barry and Rohl on for Beto and Alcaraz. The latter just had a flying bicycle kick on target which Dubravka saved. Everton are pushing hard for the opening goal. 20 minutes to go.
Beto close again!
Everton are well on top now and a cross into the box is brilliantly flicked towards goal by Beto, but the ball is out for a corner as Dubravka saves really well.
Big chance for Brunn Larsen
He’s clean through and should do better, but he lobs the ball over the advancing Pickford and over the goal.
Burnley lose their skipper early in the second half
Josh Cullen is limping off the pitch and has to come off with an injury early in the second half,. That is a blow for Burnley.
Beto and Alcaraz come close
A cross from the right buzzes across the six-yard box and Beto is sliding in but can’t convert. Tyler Dibling also does well to pick out Carlos Alcaraz but his header is straight at a grateful Martin Dubravka.
Really poor first half
Well, there hasn’t been much to update everyone on because this has been a very slow, stodgy first half. David Moyes does not look happy as Everton have been very sloppy and Burnley are easily stopping any threat from the Toffees.

Burnley vs Everton preview
Scott Parker’s Burnley did grab a draw late on at Bournemouth last time out but they are without a win in eight after a horrendous run of seven-straight defeats. That run has them in deep trouble in the relegation zone and they’re seven points from safety.
Everton lost 1-0 at home to Arsenal last week but pushed the Gunners all the way. David Moyes’ side are in the hunt for European qualification but they are missing some key attacking players for the festive period.
Burnley vs Everton prediction
This will be very tight and tense but Everton’s extra quality will just get them over the line. Burnley 1-2 Everton.
