Meanwhile, he's backing his team to come out fighting with a 3-1 win in the second half Todd Lord, a Toffee from Australia, thinks Everton look more assured with Neville at the back and to be fair, despite the goal, the captain has looked pretty good there so far Burnley take a one goal in at the break thanks to Wade Elliot's strike. Burnley started the brighter but eventually Everton found their feet only to be pegged back against the run of play.

No decision 35 What a sucker punch for Everton, just as they were beginning to dictate this game, Burnley hit them out of nowhere 34 GOAL ELLIOT! The winger finds himself with some space in the box and finds the corner of the net with his left foot via a deflection off Neville 33 Osman looks for Saha in the centre but lack of control lets the striker down and Burnley clear 32 Saha almost gets his toes on a superb low cross from Hibbert on the right, he was inches from poking that one in 31 Rodwell pulls away from Blake in the box and gets a header on target but Jensen is down quick to make his first save 31 Mears puts the ball out of play for an Everton corner 30 Half an hour gone and Everton look more settled now but it's still difficult to predict which end the opening goal could come from 29 Pienaar's cross evades everyone to go out for a Burnley goalkick 28 Fellaini's cutback is intercepted by Alexander in the penalty area but Everton are getting more of the ball now 27 Elliot will require some treatment on the sidelines as play is halted temporarily 26 Fellaini is penalised for bringing down Elliot rather clumsily 25 Everton starting to find their feet more in this game after a turbulent start 24 Baines fails to control a superb crossfield ball from Yobo.

Stewart MacLaren in Spain thinks Everton will win 2-1 today with Goals from Tim Cahill & Louis Saha No changes to the Burnley side which beat Man Utd in midweek, unsurprisingly.
