Frank Lampard insists he is doing ‘everything’ he can to keep Everton in the Premier League. A huge game at the bottom of the Premier League sees the Toffees travel to Burnley knowing a win would see them close the gap on Leeds United to just two points.
However, defeat would spell disaster for Everton and could be the platform Burnley need to launch their survival bid. The Clarets are four points from safety but victory would lift them to within touching distance of 17th - a position Sean Dyche has capitalised on many times before.
Relegation for Everton would be their first since 1951 - despite spending over £500million on new players since Farhad Moshiri’s arrival in February 2016. Pressure is at boiling point around Goodison Park but Lampard - who has lost six of his eight top-flight games in charge - is remaining upbeat.
