EVERTON
Premier League, Goodison Park, Saturday 22 March 2024, 3pm GMT
West Ham United make the 456-mile round trip to Goodison Park to take on Everton for the final time on Saturday 22 March.
Everton were one of the founding members of the Premier League ahead of the 1992/93 season and have never dropped out of the tier since, and the Toffees’ recent resurgence under returning manager David Moyes suggests they will move into their new stadium in Bramley Moor Dock as members of the top-flight in 2025/26.
Moyes has overseen a dramatic upturn in Everton’s form since replacing Sean Dyche in January, and the former West Ham United boss will hope that continues when his former employers visit L4 for the final time.
Whatever the result, a visit to Goodison is always trip down memory lane, with sections of the stadium, dating back nearly 100 years. The Bullens Road stand is one of the older parts of the ground, with the upper tier decorated with architect Archibald Leitch’s distinctive truss design.
Liverpool is also a great destination city, so supporters will be delighted by the opportunity to make a weekend away of this historic fixture.
