Everton travel to Nottingham Forest on Saturday evening searching for their first Premier League win since being hit with a 10-point penalty.
Sean Dyche's side were beaten 3-0 by Manchester United at a raucous Goodison Park on Sunday and remain in deep trouble following the punishment.
After Luton Town and Bournemouth, the two sides directly above the relegation zone, both won on Saturday, Everton then suffered a bruising defeat despite the atmosphere that was whipped out of pure anger from the locals in response to the Premier League's decision.
Luton's win in particular was significant, as it means Everton are now five points adrift of safety, as they sit level on points with bottom-of-the-table Burnley.
Despite looking like the more threatening side, especially in the first half, Everton were undone by Alejandro Garnacho's piece of pure brilliance to open the scoring, before the Toffees wasted numerous openings to level proceedings.
