According to BBC Sport analyst Stephen Warnock, if Everton loses their match against Burnley on Saturday afternoon, they could be demoted.
At Goodison Park, the Toffees play Burnley at 3 p.m.; going into the match, they are four points above the relegation zone, but they anticipate losing two points due to PSR violations this season.
This could complicate matters, as the team has lost their last 13 games. Warnock stated to Football Focus on April 6 that they will be in “serious trouble” if they are unable to defeat Vincent Kompany’s team.
He remarked, “Lose that today [against Burnley] they’re in serious trouble.” “I believe they might be demoted or removed.
“I genuinely do. I genuinely do. since they’re simply stuck in such a rut. Significant adjustments were made when they fell behind the other night. Sean Dyche substituted better players, and they gave it their best, changing the course of the match.
However, I will be concerned for them if they lose today. I genuinely do.
Everton needs to triumph and gather steam.
It’s a testament to how well the squad performed early in the season that they’re not at rock bottom just now—13 games without a win in the Premier League, or any tournament, is far too many.
The team was playing well and hovering in the middle of the table prior to the first points deduction in December, but they have had trouble gaining momentum after that.
For all those involved, Dominic Calvert-Lewin scoring the game’s only goal in 23 games to secure a late draw at St. James’ Park seemed like a major turning point.
Now that Dyche has to turn that lead into momentum, a victory over a relegation contender at Goodison Park in front of the home crowd will greatly improve morale and assist the team in getting out of the drop zone.
But as Warnock points out, a loss might result in serious issues. A major problem would soon be approaching. This game must be won.
A potential summer transfer for an Everton player has been “already dealt with” by Champions League chiefs, according to other Everton news.
