Draws: 30

Burnley and Everton have faced each other 123 times across all competitions, with Everton recording 55 victories to Burnley's 38 and 30 draws between them.

Their first meeting came on November 17, 1888, when a 2-2 draw unfolded at Turf Moor in the old Division One. Everton would go on to win the next four meetings before Burnley responded with six wins and a draw from seven matches between March 1891 and October 1893.

In keeping with the earlier instalments of this fixture, clashes in the late-1890s brought plenty of goals, including Everton's 6-0 demolition in 1896, alongside frequent draws and FA Cup ties.

Burnley went on another unbeaten run in this fixture at the start of the 1900s, going 10 matches unbeaten until 1922, after which they managed just three victories from 20 clashes.

After a 16-year wait, the rivalry kicked off post-war in the 1947-48 First Division season, where Burnley claimed a 3-0 home win on November 15 before Everton edged the 1-0 return encounter at Goodison Park on April 3.

Burnley dominated home encounters in the era that ensued, most notably thrashing Everton 5-1 at Turf Moor on December 3, 1949.

The Clarets' 1960 title push brought back-to-back 3-0 wins over Everton at Christmas and Boxing Day, but the Toffees fought back in later matches.

Top-flight clashes got rarer in the 1970s as Burnley slipped down the ladder of English football.

However, their 2009 return to the Premier League kicked off with a memorable 1-0 upset at Turf Moor, but Everton quickly responded with a 2-0 win in the reverse fixture.

Everton's standout result came in a 5-1 Boxing Day demolition at Goodison Park in 2018. Burnley hit back with survival-boosting wins, notably 3-2 at home in April 2022, but Everton dominated later encounters amid relegation pressure on the Clarets.

The 2023-24 season saw Everton complete a clean sweep as they ran out 3-0 winners in the League Cup, before completing a league double over their Lancashire counterparts.

Everton have won four of the last five Premier League meetings, most recently a 1-0 triumph in April 2024 thanks to Dominic Calvert-Lewin's winner.
