David Moyes has won 11 of his 22 Premier League away matches since returning to the club, this is more away wins than Everton managed across their previous 67 away games, a period which includes all of Rafael Benitez, Frank Lampard and Sean Dyche’s away wins combined (W10).

Everton have now contested 11 penalty shootouts at home and have won two of them.

#EFC have now been eliminated on penalties in nine of the last 10 home shootouts.

That is an 18.2% win percentage on pens on home soil.

Just bad luck, or something else?

Hate the thought of my seat being empty for tonight and with the amount on the resale (that 100% won’t sell), someone can have my seat tonight for Everton v Wolves for free.

Block 204, must have a membership for me to transfer to. RT please.

Since the beginning of the Premier League (1992), only in 2008 have Everton won more away league matches than the nine they managed in 2025 - 11 wins in 2008, also under David Moyes.

A remarkable year on the road for the Toffees.

I turn 30 tomorrow, but more importantly, Everton are playing and the Toffees have a great record when playing on the 13th of September, winning nine of their last 12, including each of their last three in a row.

Up the birthday Toffees 🎂

Everton haven’t conceded a Premier League goal from a set-piece (excl. pens) since February 26th.

Of the ever-present clubs since the start of last season, only Newcastle United (Feb 23rd) have went longer without conceding from a set-piece than #EFC.
