    Everton beat Burnley to secure first home win of 2026

    We asked for your thoughts after Tuesday's Premier League game between Everton and Burnley.

    Here are some of your comments:

    Everton fans:

    Ian: Nice to see us transfer that away form back to our new home. Burnley didn't put up much of a fight but let that take nothing away from our performance. Great work rate all round, desire to win the ball and much better movement of the ball. Extra mention for Dwight Mcneil who has been excellent in the last two games after that disappointment of the move that never was. It shows character so I'm happy for him. Beto has been better too. We're still a work in progress but we are starting to show progress.

    Anton: I don't know what the problem is, we've a 100% home record in March! We've got to thank Burnley, though, for graciously not bothering to turn up - they were so, so poor. But we can only beat what's in front of us and we finally did that at home. Shout-out to McNeil who was excellent - a "Grealish who?" kind of display, made up for him. Let's keep pushing for that improbable European place!

    Mike: A solid performance and a welcomed home win. To have 43 points at this stage is a great haul and but for a few wobbles could have been even better. Some very tough fixtures ahead but let's hope we can relax a bit and who knows where we can finish.

    Harry: Credit where it's due, two wins on the bounce is no time to criticise but definitely time to say it feels good to be looking up and knowing we will have a good summer regardless of the rest of the season. If we do qualify for Europe better players will want to join us.

    Burnley fans:

    Steve: This team is frightened of its own shadow, the team lack ideas, momentum and direction.

    Billy: It was so lack lustre again. It was like they didn't know how to play any sort of football. All players on top of each other, no sort of system or idea. They missed Zian Flemming too, he seems to be the only one in recent games that gives it absolutely everything. Think they lack confidence and not having a focus of how to play knocks their confidence even more. Bring on the championship and use the experience they've gained to be stronger when they come back, hopefully.

    Bob: I'm sure I'm not the only one who is so fed up with Scott Parker trotting out the same tired excuses after almost every game. Despite the heroics against Brentford ( and we still lost) It's painfully obvious that he's not the only one to blame. A complete reset is needed starting with Alan Pace & co.

    Mark: Terrible, been poor all season. Manager is just a good lower league one at best, Burnley should had said thanks after promotion and got in a premier quality manager. They look like a mediocre championship side still.

  3. 'The possibilities are endless' for Evertonpublished at 11:28 GMT

    David Moyes waves to fans after matchImage source, Getty Images

    David Moyes has got something "really, really special" at Everton right now, says former striker Jermaine Beckford.

    Having battled against relegation in recent seasons, the Toffees are now looking up the table with a chance to secure European football for next campaign.

    They secured their first home win of 2026 on Tuesday night and now sit in eighth, which, depending on permutations elsewhere, could yet be enough for a spot in Europe.

    "David Moyes is a phenomenal coach," Beckford told BBC Radio 5 Live Breakfast. "I've been fortunate enough to work with him during my time. I know what he is capable of, what he focuses on and what he prides himself on.

    "He prides himself on hardworking players, really well organised, really well disciplined. This season especially he has got a lot of big players, physically big players, but they've got a lot of technique about them as well. You mix that in with a bit of stardust like Iliman Ndiaye and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and you've got something really, really special. That is what he has got.

    "If you watch Everton, especially at home, they play good football but results-wise have not been great. A few games where they have looked impressive but not been able to get the goal to get them over the line. But against Burnley they were real really good.

    "With Liverpool's defeat last night, they will be licking their lips and thinking 'wow, we are only five points away from them, what is possible?'. The possibilities are endless, aren't they?"

  4. 'Everton have got ingredients to get into Europe'published at 09:02 GMT

    David Moyes looks onImage source, Getty Images

    Former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock says Everton could "sneak in" to the European places if they can improve their home form over the rest of the season.

    The Toffees' win on Tuesday was their first at the Hill Dickinson Stadium for 87 days, but took them to up to eighth and just five points behind their city rivals in fifth and the likely last Champions League place.

    "It is congested but David Moyes can lean on his experience with his staff," Warnock told BBC Radio 5 Live's Football Daily podcast.

    "They have been there before with West Ham so they have done that side of it.

    "You have to look at their recruitment and the players they bought in during the summer - it has been brilliant.

    "[Kiernan] Dewsbury-Hall got a goal against Burnley. I think he has been arguably one of the signings of the summer.

    "You need workhorses in the midfield who also provide quality and get you goals.

    "They just have a sprinkling of game-changers with Iliman Ndiaye and players like that but they also have a strong backbone and goalkeeper as well.

    "They have got the ingredients to get over the line. The big thing is turning their home form into more victories and not rely so much on their away form. If they do that I think they could sneak in."

  5. Ndiaye proves Blues are finally feeling at homepublished at 22:54 GMT 3 March

    When Ndiaye was substituted in stoppage with his side 2-0 up, he took a moment to soak it all in.

    The forward signed merchandise, shook hands and applauded supporters as he made his way around the perimeter of the pitch to the sound of a standing ovation from an exuberant Hill Dickinson crowd.

    Who could blame him? It was a moment he and his team-mates had waited nearly three months for.

    The Senegal international - as has so often been the case this season - was among the standout performers as the Blues strengthened their push for European qualification with a first home victory in 87 days.

    There is no denying that the transition since leaving Goodison Park - their home of 133 years - has been a difficult one.

    But heading into Tuesday's contest with just four wins from 14 games at Hill Dickinson Stadium was simply not good enough.

    It was a record that threatened to undermine the progress made in a campaign that - after reaching the 40-point mark in 28 games for only the second time in nine seasons, has the potential to be a memorable one.

    But that promise will only be realised if Everton can settle into life on Liverpool's Waterfront and banish their recent home struggles.

    If Ndiaye's full-time reaction is anything to go by, Everton may at least be settling into life on the banks of the River Mersey.

  6. Everton 2-0 Burnley: What Moyes saidpublished at 22:28 GMT 3 March

    Media caption,

    Everton boss David Moyes, speaking to BBC Match of the Day after the 2-0 win over Burnley: "Back-to-back wins in the Premier League at the moment is hard for anybody. And it's been difficult for us over the last month or two but certainly a really good win tonight.

    "The win we got at Newcastle gave us confident going into tonight's game. I thought it showed in the way we played. I thought for long periods we dominated the ball. We maybe didn't make as many chances as we'd like but in the end we got a couple of goals."

    On being close to the European places: "I want to be positive, and I want to believe and I want the players to believe. I have said to them right at the start, that should be what we aim for if we can try and do it. It's getting closer. I'm not saying we can do it and I'm not saying we cannot. We're not being talked about as a club that's in relegation and falling away. We actually think we're a club that's making progress and we can start tickling the top teams and putting them under a bit of pressure."

    Could Everton finish in the top eight and secure a European place?

    Following their win at Newcastle's St James' Park on Saturday, the Toffees have moved up to eighth with 40 points and are in the thick of the battle for a return to European competition

    The Observer's Rory Smith believes it is still too close to call, but as we get into the business-end of the season they have every chance if they keep their form going.

    "Everton fans would see Europe this season as a massive overperformance," said Smith on BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club. "David Moyes deserves a huge amount of credit this season for keeping them in the mix of it, given their squad didn't have the investment in the summer like most do and the glaring holes they have.

    "Jarrad Branthwaite is probably their best player and has barely played this season, for example. They have plenty of good players but Branthwaite is outstanding.

    "From fifth to 14th in the Premier League is still in play so it will come down to who is on a good run of form when the music [games] stops."

  10. Everton v Burnley: Key stats and talking pointspublished at 09:02 GMT 3 March

    Chris Adams
    BBC Sport journalist

    Everton will be looking to arrest a sharp decline in their home form when Burnley make the relatively short trip to Hill Dickinson Stadium on Tuesday (19:30 GMT).

    Toffees can't sugar-coat home struggles

    The Toffees, who sit eighth, won five of the first nine league games at their new ground on the banks of the River Mersey, but they are winless in their past seven, their worst run at home since going nine without a victory at Goodison Park between April and October 1998.

    Back-to-back losses at home to Bournemouth and Manchester United were followed up by an impressive 3-2 win over Newcastle United in a lively game at St James' Park on Saturday. Everton haven't lost three home league matches in a row since September 2023 (a run of four).

    The conversation in the aftermath of the 1-0 defeat by Manchester United focused on Everton's bombardment of Senne Lammens' goal via 10 corner kicks, to no avail. Such tactics perhaps speak to a wider creativity problem for the Toffees, given only four teams have scored fewer goals at home this season.

    Just seven of Everton's 16 home goals (43.75%) in the Premier League have come from open play, the joint-fewest of any club (along with Crystal Palace).

    The chart shows that of the 16 Premier League goals Everton have scored at home this season, just seven have been from open play. Nine have been from set pieces (three from corners, two from free-kicks, two from throw-ins, and two from penalty kicks).

    Thierno Barry's uptick in form continued against the Magpies; his late winner made him the Blues' outright top scorer in the league with six. All of the Frenchman's goals have come in his past 14 appearances, after none in his first 14.

    So near yet so VAR for Clarets

    Burnley head coach Scott Parker accepted that "the fine margins of technology" had denied his side a stoppage-time equaliser in the remarkable 4-3 defeat by Brentford at Turf Moor on Saturday.

    The Clarets, 19th and eight points from safety, were 3-0 down at half-time, but battled back admirably and thought they had rescued a point through Ashley Barnes before VAR intervened and his effort was ruled out for handball.

    One man who did get on the scoresheet was Zian Flemming. The Dutchman is level with Jaidon Anthony as Burnley's top scorer in the league this season with seven.

    Six of those goals have come away from home; only Chris Wood, who got seven in 2020-21, has scored more on the road in a campaign for the Clarets in this competition.

    One telling problem for Burnley is how many of their goals come when they are already behind, as was the case with all three against Brentford. They have scored more league goals when losing than any other side in the division this season, with 21, showing that while their resilience is admirable, their inability to go ahead in games is costly.

    This graphic shows that as of March 2, 2026,  Burnley have scored the most goals in the Premier League this season while trailing in matches, with a total of 21.

    For all that Tuesday's hosts may have struggled at home recently, Burnley have a dreadful record when visiting the blue half of Merseyside. They have won just three of their past 21 away games against Everton, drawing three and losing 15.

    The previous two Premier League meetings between sides managed by David Moyes and Parker have ended 0-0, including a drab affair at Turf Moor in December.

    Only two managerial match-ups have had three consecutive goalless draws in the competition: George Graham vs Gerry Francis (Arsenal v QPR, 1992-1994) and Brian Little vs Alex Ferguson (Aston Villa v Manchester United, 1996-1997).

  11. Sutton's predictions: Everton v Burnleypublished at 07:37 GMT 3 March

    Chris Sutton smiling on a yellow and black background with 'Sutton's predictions' written below his face

    You have to feel for Burnley after their brave comeback against Brentford ended in a dramatic late defeat. They have shown plenty of fight recently but that might have knocked the stuffing out of them a bit.

    Everton could really do with a positive result at home after picking up two points from their past six games at their new stadium.

    The Toffees got such a brilliant win at Newcastle on Saturday, when every time Newcastle got back in it, Everton scored again.

    If they play like that again, they will win.

    Sutton's prediction: 2-0

  12. 'One of the greatest saves in Premier League history'published at 19:01 GMT 2 March

     Jordan Pickford of Everton celebratesImage source, Getty Images

    Just when Everton looked like they had taken two steps back again, look what they go and pull out the bag.

    Fresh off seeing Newcastle cruise through their Champions League tie, few inside St James' Park would have imagined what was about to unfold, as Everton managed to come from behind twice within 90 seconds to mark three straight home league defeats on Tyneside.

    It was arguably Everton's most complete display of character this season, largely due to players like Iliman Ndiaye, Idrissa Gueye and Jarrad Branthwaite finally looking back to their best.

    But the ultimate example of this strength of character must be Jordan Pickford.

    Long has England's reigning (and undoubted) number one been the subject of underserved criticism and ridicule. That save in the 94th minute to seal three points is beyond world class. Of the 50,000 attendees in St James' Park on Saturday, I doubt many will ever see a better save in their lifetime. To react that fast to the sweetest of travelling strikes at that speed is totally outrageous.

    It is not just a great save – it is one of the greatest ever saves in Premier League history.

    Absolutely magnificent and utter dynamite, it's mesmerising. Please let's start giving him the plaudits he so rightly deserves. Pickford has never let Everton, nor England, down. Moments like this demand recognition rather than scepticism. At some point, the applause must be as emphatic as his performances. That wasn't even his first world-class save this season.

    But the challenge for Pickford and for Everton now is consistency. Everton must back this up on Tuesday. Great saves and dramatic comebacks are brilliant on the road, but they only really matter if backed up at home. This season Everton have found that incredibly difficult.

    For now, it's back to positivity and back to thinking about Europe again!

  13. Moyes on striker improvement, McNeil's return and home formpublished at 14:01 GMT 2 March

    Media caption,

    Everton boss David Moyes has been speaking to the media before Tuesday's Premier League game against Burnley at Hill Dickinson Stadium (kick-off 19:30 GMT).

    Here are the key lines from his news conference:

    • On teams news, Moyes said: "We have a couple of things I wouldn't want to reveal at the moment. Alcaraz is out, Coleman picked up something - not serious - on Friday. He won't be available but hopefully not too long."

    • Moyes stated Everton still "need more goals" from strikers Thierno Barry and Beto. While upbeat on their recent input, he added: "I don't think the numbers are the numbers I want. I want centre forwards to have far more goals. To spread that number out is good. We need a bigger return from them."

    • Asked about using two strikers at the same time, he said: "Possibly at times. It's probably out of fashion having two strikers now for maybe 20 years. Lots of things have come in, long throws, set-piece goals, so who knows? Two centre forwards may be the future. Will we do it? We might do if we need to but I don't think all the time."

    • On reaching 40 points: "Quite a lot of satisfaction. We have got there with 10 games to go. I have always been looking beyond 40 points but there is always something in the back of your mind - the recent history has not been much better than reaching that total. I've talked about us doing more than that and hopefully we can do."

    • Moyes said he doesn't think there is "huge expectation" on his side to beat Burnley but stressed "back-to-back wins would be hugely important for us".

    • The Everton boss was asked about home versus away form and said he doesn't ask his team to play too differently but showing more ambition at home has at times left them a little more open. He added: "If we have to take all the points away from home and don't do so well as home, if you look through the history books and look at the teams who have moved to new stadiums, it's never been that easy, certainly in the first year."

    • On Dwight McNeil's return to the side in the aftermath of him nearly joining Crystal Palace, Moyes said: "I didn't at any moment doubt Dwight, how he would react and play. He trained really well last week so he got himself an opportunity. We have been trying to find the right balance. A lot of them are young boys. Dwight gave us that bit of experience."

    • Moyes was also asked about Jordan Pickford's fine save to deny Sandro Tonali at Newcastle on Saturday: "We couldn't give it much more praise than we did do. To get his hand to it and onto the bar, a brilliant save so well done. We've all picked out great saves over many years, from Gordon Banks to Scottish keepers too, but I have to say, it was a great save."

    We asked for your thoughts after Saturday's Premier League game between Newcastle and Everton.

    Here are some of your comments:

    Newcastle fans

    Richard: Nick Woltemade and Anthony are Championship standard at best. Who on earth gave the OK to spending a fortune on these two? Aaron Ramsdale has got to take over from Nick Pope, who is too error prone. Lewis Miley, Tino Livramento and Bruno Guimaraes are sorely missed.

    Adam: Our season in a nutshell. We have to work incredibly hard to score goals, but we concede effortlessly.

    Barry: Worst performance I've seen for a long time. No cohesion, no vision, wasting so much time on the edge of the area without putting the ball in. Can someone at United please do analysis of how many moves Elanga screws up? Jordan Pickford's amazing save prevented a draw but, to be honest, we didn't deserve it.

    Paul: When we start slow, we stay slow. When we start fast, we win.

    Everton fans

    Carl: It's nice to reach 40 points by February! (Be still my beating heart!!) Not sure about European qualification as I don't think our squad is quite good enough yet. Still... onwards and upwards for all Toffees supporters.

    Tom: Save of the season. Hands down. This boy delivers season after season.

    Dave: Everton were their typical selves - hard-working and resilient in defence. But Newcastle will always struggle while they believe Dan Burn is the answer. We played three central defenders, all miles better than him. Burn was made to look poor by both Beto and Thierno Barry - which is saying something. But going home very happy and a big thank you to Dan Burn for three points.

    Lee: Gritty, determined - never gave up! In Moyes we trust!

  15. 'I needed to show I want to be here'published at 07:29 GMT 2 March

    Media caption,

    Everton striker Beto has said he needs "to adapt, keep working" and "show I want to be here" after scoring on his first start of 2026 in Saturday's 3-2 win at Newcastle.

    "I want to keep playing more - starting and helping the team," said Beto.

    "I felt that the second goal gave us a boost of confidence, and myself personally.

    "I'm pleased with my all-round game. It was a tough game. They have really strong and fast defenders. I just needed to put in mind to hold it, set for someone and then you go. I am always training to improve in this because I lack a little bit in that part of the game.

    "It was really good, I'm pleased but I think I can do better.

    "We are playing really good away from home and we want to bring those points to Hill Dickinson Stadium to start making out stadium our fortress."

    Beto's goal was his fifth this season, with four of those coming in the Premier League, but the 28-year-old added: "I am not liking my season personally because I am not scoring the goals I had in my mind I was supposed to score.

    "But this is football. You need to adapt, keep working and, when you have the opportunity, you need to score."

    BBC Final Score

    Media caption,

    It's always great to have a moment at a football match that leaves you watching on, open-mouthed, in amazement.

    For me, Jordan Pickford's incredible injury-time save at St James' Park on Saturday was one of those moments.

    I still don't know how he managed to get a hand to the ball with just milliseconds to react to Sandro Tonali's brilliant volley. Pickford pushed it on to the bar and the whole stadium couldn't believe the Italian hadn't made it 3-3.

    Afterwards, Pickford had a huge smile on his face as he was followed by the TV cameras to the away end. As a former Sunderland keeper, he always relishes a game against Newcastle and even seems to enjoy the boos and jeers that come his way as soon as he walks on to the pitch for the warm-up.

    Everton boss David Moyes called it a "wonder save" in the post-match news conference, saying it was extra special because Tonali couldn't have hit his volley any better.

    Despite all his England caps and several heroic moments for club and country, I still think there's an argument that Pickford doesn't get the credit he deserves from pundits or fans.

    Week in, week out, he delivers for Everton. His huge personality and infectious enthusiasm drives on the team, he's good with his feet and seems to regularly step up for his team-mates at crucial times.

    England boss Thomas Tuchel will be hoping Pickford can deliver some more of those match-winning saves this summer at the World Cup but the Everton number one will have to go some to beat that stop from Tonali's volley.

    I'm off to watch another replay!

  17. Newcastle 2-3 Everton: What Moyes and Branthwaite saidpublished at 18:39 GMT 28 February

    Media caption,

    David Moyes speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "It was a really good game, brilliant performances from the players. Coming to St James' Park is never an easy place to win and they're a very good team, an improving team as well so for us to get three points is amazing.

    "You know what it's like when they're shooting down the hill here, you feel you're going to get pegged back but we were aware and I thought we were really disciplined. We lost to goals to two deflected shots so that was disappointing but overall the players played really well.

    On bouncing back after conceding: "It was great, we never gave Newcastle a chance to enjoy their moment. Great credit to our players, their mentality was great, stuck at it and came away from home against a good side and got a result.

    On Jordan Pickford's save: "I was laughing. I was gonna run on the pitch and celebrate a save again. Sandro Tonali couldn't have hit that any better, it was technically brilliant but the save was out of this world. Jordan played well today, helped us out a lot and his save was top notch.

    On form in the league: "I'm hugely pleased with how we're doing. I want to get away from this thing that we don't have any home form."

    Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite speaking to BBC Final Score: "Massive result on the road. Our away form has been top all season so it's another great result and a push in the right direction."

    On returning from injury: "It's been a tough season for me and the only way to get through it is on the rehab and training to get back as soon as possible and as fit as possible. I've done that and it has made it easier for when I have been back on the pitch."

    On Everton's home form: "Our away form has been top class all season and the home form is something that we need to get better at. We need to pick up more points at home and we are working on that as a team. The last showing at home against Manchester United was a step in the right direction so hopefully we can build on that. It is always difficult when you are so used to something to move away and to come to something new but it is not an excuse. We've been there all season and the home form needs to change."

    On his World Cup chances with England: "Definitely. Before the season that was my main goal as an international to get to the World Cup. With the injury, it has been a bit of a setback but I've got the remaining games this season to give it my best shot to be in the squad and I think I've got to take it game by game and hopefully I can push on until the end of the season and give myself a good chance."

    On talk of European football: "At the start of the season that was the main objective. To push for Europe. The lads have done a brilliant job during the season. We have just got to get as many points as we can and see where that takes us."

    On Jordan Pickford's save: "Top save. Something we have come to expect from him but it was a brilliant save and he has kept us in the game again."

    Everton's strikers have not exactly been prolific this season.

    Beto has netted five goals in all competitions, while Thierno Barry has bagged six after only finding his shooting boots in recent months.

    But this was an afternoon when the pair delivered for their side.

    Just as David Moyes got the reaction he wanted from Beto on a rare start, so too did he when Barry came off the bench to score the winner.

    It was not necessarily a vintage finish, but the substitute gambled and was in the right place at the right time to get some form of contact on Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall's delivery to the back post to send the Everton supporters bouncing in delight.

    The travelling support have certainly been rewarded for their trips up and down the country.

    In fact, only Premier League leaders Arsenal have picked up more points (29) on the road than resilient Everton (24).

    After successive home defeats against Manchester United and Bournemouth, this was the perfect response from Everton.

    Anthony Gordon starts against his former club as Newcastle United make six changes for the visit of Everton.

    Gordon, Nick Pope, Malick Thiaw, Lewis Hall, Jacob Ramsey and Anthony Elanga have all been recalled following their side's 3-2 win against Qarabag earlier this week.

    It remains to be seen whether Gordon is leading the line or if the England international is starting on the left.

    Newcastle XI: Pope, Trippier, Thiaw, Burn, Hall, Tonali, Ramsey, Joelinton, Elanga, Woltemade, Gordon,

    Subs: Ramsdale, Botman, Osula, Wissa, Barnes, J.Murphy, Willock, A.Murphy, Shahar

    Dwight McNeil makes his first appearance since a deadline day move to Crystal Palace collapsed as Everton make four changes for the trip to St James' Park.

    The Everton winger looked set to leave the club last month - only for his proposed switch to fall through.

    McNeil, Jake O'Brien, Vitalii Mykolenko and Beto all come back into the side following Monday night's defeat against Manchester United.

    Everton XI: Pickford, O'Brien, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko, Gueye, Garner, McNeil, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye, Beto

    Subs: Travers, Patterson, Keane, Barry, George, Dibling, Rohl, Iroegbunam, Armstrong
