Burnley vs Everton prediction: ENGLAND: Premier League betting tips on match 2025-12-26 15:00.

[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]A point away to Bournemouth last weekend was a good point on the face of it for Burnley, but with their winless league run now standing at eight games (D1, L7), it’s wins they need quickly, not draws. They can lean on the fact that two of their three top-flight wins this term came on home soil for a bit of inspiration, but both came against newly-promoted opposition, and the Clarets have won just one of their last 25 Premier League home games against teams that weren’t promoted at the start of the season (D4, L20). Things look even bleaker against sides starting this round inside the top 14 alongside Everton, as Burnley have lost 11 of 12 such league meetings this term (W1).[/p]
[p]Despite losing against Arsenal last weekend, Everton spent Christmas Day in the top half of the Premier League table for the first time since the 2020/21 campaign. Back-to-back defeats have dampened optimism slightly on Merseyside, and having already failed to beat the other two newly-promoted sides on the road this term (D1, L1), David Moyes’ men are sure to travel with a sense of trepidation here. That’s part of a wider run of one win in six away league games against promoted opposition (D3, L2) and the negative omens don’t stop there for the Toffees, who haven’t won their first post-Christmas game in any of the last four seasons (D1, L3).[/p]
