Saturday's lunchtime kick-off is not just a meeting between title favourites and relegation candidates, but also a clash of ideologies between rival managers.
Everton, languishing in 19th, have a new manager at the helm as Arsenal come calling at Goodison Park, with Sean Dyche facing a baptism of fire against the runaway league leaders. The Englishman is renowned for his no-nonsense style of management, which was a successful formula throughout his 10-year stint at overachievers Burnley.
This approach means Dyche rarely minces his words and is as straight-shooting a boss as any in the Premier League, leading to many a contrast of opinions with his counterparts, most infamously Liverpool's Jurgen Klopp. Towards the end of last season, Dyche was typically frank as he refuted Mikel Arteta's "cup final" theory.
