Premier League LIVE: Southampton vs Manchester United and seven other matches – live text and radio commentary

  • Since returning to the Premier League in 2019, Aston Villa have remained unbeaten in all ten league games against Everton (7 wins, 3 draws), keeping seven clean sheets and conceding just three goals during that time.

  • Everton have lost four of their last five Premier League away games at Aston Villa (D1). They had previously won three of their previous four away games at Villa Park (L1).

  • After a run of 15 consecutive home league wins from March to December 2023, Aston Villa have since won just four of their last 12 Premier League games at Villa Park (D4, L4), losing their only such game this season, 2-0 to Arsenal. Only in the 2013/14 season have the Villans lost their first two home games of a Premier League season.

  • Everton are one of two teams, along with Southampton, to have lost all three of their Premier League matches this season. The Toffees have only ever had a longer losing streak from the start of a league season in 1926/27 (5) and 1958/59 (6).

  • Everton have lost eight of their last ten Premier League games immediately following an international break (W1, D1), including all four of their matches last season. Aston Villa, on the other hand, have won each of their last five league games immediately following an international break.

  • Aston Villa have applied less pressure in the final third (103) than any other team in the Premier League this season. They are also bottom of the league for most ball losses (12) and are joint-fewest in pressure sequences (24).

  • Everton have lost their last four Premier League games. The Toffees have not lost five consecutive games in the competition since October 2005 under David Moyes (streak of 6).

  • Everton have scored just once in their last five Premier League away games against Aston Villa, a Lucas Digne own goal in August 2022. The last Toffees player to score a league goal at Villa Park was Romelu Lukaku in March 2016.

  • Despite starting just three Premier League matches in his career, Jhon Durán has scored seven goals in the competition, six of them as a substitute, and his average of 96 minutes per goal is the best of any Aston Villa player to have scored more than three goals for the club in the Premier League.

  • Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin has made 97 runs without the ball in the Premier League this season, more than any other player, and 44 of those have been targeted, also a league high. The striker has either scored (5) or assisted (2) seven of the Toffees’ last 12 league goals.
