Everton travel to the Vitality Stadium on Saturday to take on Bournemouth in the Premier League. Ronald Koeman will be keen for his side to continue their impressive start to the season, which has even got people talking about just how far the Toffees could go this term.

Everton come into this game on the back of an impressive 3-1 win against Middlesbrough at Goodison Park last Saturday and despite their sluggish start to the game, the Merseysiders' overriding quality shone through as they overpowered Boro.

The Toffees will be keen to make it five wins from six and their opponents are not in the best of form with only one win in their last five games, leaving them just shy of the relegation zone.

Confidence at Bournemouth will be low after the Manchester City game and Everton will surely be confident of the three points Saturday.

How can they go about achieving the win? Well, here are THREE tips...

Keep Callum Wilson Quiet

Everton have been solid defensively this season with Ashley Williams slotting perfectly into Everton’s back four and forming a formidable partnership with Phil Jagielka.

The one Cherries man they will need to keep quiet is Callum Wilson who is a very dangerous player in the box. He is great with his back to goal and his excellent solo finish in the 1-0 victory against West Brom demonstrates that he can come up with something very special in tight areas.

Control the Midfield

The midfield battle on Saturday will be crucial in deciding who comes out on top in this game. Bournemouth are known for their possession football, but they tend to struggle against more physical sides.

Last season this fixture ended in an epic 3-3 draw highlighting the defensive deficiencies of both teams, but since the arrival of Koeman, Everton’s own third play has improved drastically.

The great partnership that Gareth Barry and Idrissa Gueye have formed will be crucial in preventing Bournemouth retaining the ball and dictating the tempo of the game.

Keep Romelu Lukaku firing

It was great news for all Evertonians when Lukaku decided to stay. He is a player that can be unstoppable on his day and he adds so much physicality and purpose to Everton’s play.

His ability to brush aside players is crucial to bringing the likes of Ross Barkley, Kevin Mirallas and Yannick Bolasie into play. With an 11th minute hat-trick and a goal last Saturday, his confidence will be high.
