Everton could be about to do something they never have in the Premier League era

Everton have the chance to make it four Premier League games unbeaten on Saturday.

Brighton await Everton and David Moyes at the Amex Stadium, where they have only lost once in the Premier League this season. Even that was a narrow 4-3 defeat against Aston Villa.

It will therefore be a difficult match for the Toffees, but if Everton can get one over on Fabian Hurzeler for a second time this season, it would signal a piece of Premier League history.

Everton have chance to record a first Premier League double over Brighton

Ever since Brighton won promotion to the Premier League in 2017, Everton have surprisingly never managed to win both games against the Seagulls in a single campaign.

The Toffees came closest to doing so in the 2017/18 campaign and the 2020/21 season, winning 2-0 and 4-2 at Goodison Park respectively, but finding themselves held to 1-1 and 0-0 draws at the Amex Stadium.
