Ronald Koeman is under increasing pressure after Everton slumped to a 1-0 home defeat against Burnley yesterday.
The Everton boss made five changes in an attempt to breathe life into his side, who came into the game with only one win in their last five Premier League games and sitting at the bottom of their Europa League group following a 2-2 draw at home to 10-man Apollon Limassol on Thursday.
But despite a refreshed line-up, with Wayne Rooney left on the bench, the hosts produced another uninspiring display, Jeff Hendrick’s 21st-minute strike proving to be the winner for Burnley.
Everton, tipped to push for a top-four place at the start of the season, remain 16th with only seven points from as many games, while Burnley surge up to sixth after making it five league games unbeaten.
Sean Dyche’s men have collected eight of their 12 points in four away games this season, more than they managed away from Turf Moor in the entire 2016-17 campaign.
