EVERTON FC: SUNDERLAND v EVERTON - THE LOWDOWN

/noticias.info/ Head to Head


Our away record against Sunderland in the league is:


P72 W17 D11 L44 F80 A149


Our Premier League record against Sunderland is:


P W D L
Home 7 4 2 1

Away 6 2 0 4
Total 13 6 2 5

We won the first game this season at Goodison 7-1 - also the first encounter between the managers - and the most recent fixture between the teams at Sunderland was settled by a last minute Tim Cahill goal on New Years Eve 2005.

Everton have won six of the last seven meetings between the teams. Sunderland's last win over Everton was 1-0 at the Stadium of Light in December 2001.

Everton lead on the victory count 62-61 in league encounters between the teams.

The Goals

The last hat-trick by an Everton player in the fixture was by Tony Cottee, who scored four goals in a Zenith Data Cup tie at Goodison in January 1991. The last league hat trick was Johnny Morrissey in May 1967.

The players

The last player sent-off in the fixture was Sunderland's Don Hutchison at Goodison in May 2001. No Everton player has been dismissed in the 162 games between the clubs.

It will be Tim Cahill's 100th league match for Everton if he plays on Sunday and Phil Jagielka's 250th league career start.

General

We have conceded only one goal to an opposition player from open play in the last seven away league matches - by Cristiano Ronaldo at Old Trafford in December. The other two were a Ronaldo penalty in the same game and an own goal by Phil Jagielka at Wigan.

If we win on Sunday it will be five league ‘doubles' this season having already won home and away against Bolton, Middlesbrough, Wigan and Manchester City - equalling the highest tally since 1985/86.

If we win on Sunday it will be our 8th away win in the league - equalling our highest number in the Premiership set in 1992/93. It would also be our 15th away win for the season, the second highest ever after the 17 accumulated in 1984/85.

We have conceded 799 Premiership goals.

Everton are unbeaten in eight league matches in 2008 - the best start to a calendar year since 1986. notas_de_prensa_archivo
