Everton are fresh off a stunning 3-2 win at Newcastle
Burnley were pipped 4-3 by Brentford in a thriller at the weekend
Recommended bet: Burnley to win at least one half
Everton and Burnley go toe to toe at the Hill Dickinson Stadium in contrasting moods after very different weekends.
The Toffees boosted their European tilt by producing a memorable 3-2 win at Newcastle on the same afternoon as Burnley endured a heart-breaking 4-3 home defeat by Brentford.
Team news
David Moyes must be tempted to send out the same XI who started at Newcastle.
The Scotsman's only absentee of note is Jack Grealish, who has been ruled out for the rest of the season.
For Burnley, Lyle Foster recovered from a sickness bug to make the bench against Brentford and is hoping for a start.
Marcus Edwards is a doubt after picking up a knock in training, while Kyle Walker is hoping for a recall after being surprisingly axed at the weekend.

The stats
Everton are without a win in their last seven home games.
Burnley have taken four points from their last two away games, courtesy of a 3-2 win at Crystal Palace and 1-1 draw at Chelsea, coming from behind on both occasions.
Everton (8th) have scored fewer goals at home than Burnley (19th) have away; the Toffees have scored 16 times at the Hill Dickinson, the Clarets 17 goals on their travels.
Burnley average 9.2 shots per game and three shots on target per game, each the lowest for those categories in the Premier League.
Scott Parker's men failed to muster a single shot on target against Everton when the teams drew 0-0 at Turf Moor in December.
Prediction
Everton are favourites following events over the weekend as the Toffees won 3-2 at Newcastle, while Burnley lost 4-3 against Brentford.
Indeed, the season as a whole suggests Everton are the better side.
But this is a team that has managed to win only four times at home all season, and they are coming up against an opponent quite clearly fighting for their lives.
David Moyes' men have not won a home game in three months and they have actually scored fewer goals in front of their own fans at the Hill Dickinson than relegation candidates Burnley have away.
Burnley have probably left it too late to make a difference but their 3-2 win at Palace, 1-1 draw at Chelsea and subsequent heartbreaking defeat by Brentford at least show a team that, belatedly, is going to go down swinging.
And that surely makes them dangerous against a side like Everton, who will never score too many goals and can be negated.
A Burnley win is perhaps a leap of faith too far but backing the Clarets to win either half, however, something they have done in each of their last four matches, appeals.
