Arsenal are taking on Everton tonight in the Premier League at the Emirates Stadium. Fans have gathered outside the stadium to protest against the ownership of the Kroenkes following the European Super League debacle this week, which saw Arsenal as one of the 12 clubs attempting to break away from Uefa and form their own competition which would ringfence money and power among a select few.
There is still the matter of Premier League places to play for and European competition next season. Arsenal can leapfrog the Toffees into eighth place in the Premier League and pull themselves back into Europa League contention with victory, while Everton can kill off the Gunners’ challenge and move themselves to within a point of seventh-place Liverpool and sixth-place Tottenham.
Follow all the latest action from the Premier League meeting below.

HALF TIME
Not a half to live long in the memory. Everton undoubtedly been the better of the two sides. Everything has been going through James, which has made them a little predictable going forward. Yet they did carve out the best chance – albeit still limited from distance – and Sigurdsson hit the bar from an excellent free kick.
Are we likely to see changes from Arsenal before the start of the second half?

43 min: Arsenal really haven’t appeared on this first half after a decent few opening minutes. Everton by far the better side.

FREE KICK FOR EVERTON
37 min: Chance for Everton here, free kick in a very dangerous position.

35 min: Everton trying to go through James every time when going forward. He’s getting very little room to operate in.

33 min: Middle of the pitch very congested, not much width being used by both sides.

CHANCE FOR EVERTON
28 min: Incisive move from Everton. Allan feeds a very good pass into the feet of Richarlison down the right-hand side of the Arsenal half. The Brazilian’s effort is well saved by Leno, but he spills it, and Calvert-Lewin nearly gets his head to it.
Bit of a let off for the home side.

26 min: Arsenal have begun to turn the screw a little in the last couple of minutes, but Everton are blocking every shot Arsenal players take. Resolute defending from Ancelotti’s side.
