Latest football commentary on Everton vs Ipswich Town

As expected, Everton's poor run at Stamford Bridge continued last Saturday, as Nicolas Jackson's first-half goal took their winless run against Chelsea in the Premier League away from home to 30.

This means David Moyes' side have won just one of their last nine Premier League games. After their recent home defeat to Man City, the returning manager is in danger of losing three games in a row – something that has never happened in the final 18 months of his first spell at the club.

Both of their last two defeats have been goalless. Everton are now second only to Leicester (16) in the Premier League for the most number of times they have failed to score in the season, with 15 games failing to score – their highest tally in any campaign in the 21st century.

While only four teams have conceded fewer than their 41, no team outside the relegation zone have scored fewer goals than Everton (34), highlighting the need for them to focus on attack in the next transfer window.

However, many Everton fans are not too worried about the above figures at the moment, when hoping for a bright future with new owners, a new stadium nearing completion and a summer transfer window expected to see strong investment in the squad - something that has been absent for many years.

Each position in the Premier League table brings additional prize money, so Moyes will want his side to regain 13th place this week, having been overtaken by Wolves and Manchester United last weekend – both of whom face tough opposition in this round of fixtures.

Following a 2-0 win over Ipswich at Portman Road in October, Everton fans were hoping their side could complete a Premier League double over Ipswich – something they have only managed once since 1994-95.

However, Ipswich won at Goodison Park in both of their Premier League seasons in the early 2000s. However, maintaining that perfect record since the turn of the century has been difficult.

Last week, manager Kieran McKenna and his players were officially relegated after a 0-3 defeat to Newcastle at St James' Park. Ben Johnson's first-half red card left Ipswich with little chance of a response.

Despite finishing 18th, they are 15 points behind West Ham – the team above them – and the three newcomers this season, including Ipswich, are considered the weakest teams ever to play in the Premier League.

However, Ipswich have earned the majority of their points away from home – two-thirds of their total this season – which suggests they are a threat on the road, but it also explains their early relegation from the top flight.

Failure to hold on to an advantage was a big factor in this. McKenna’s team dropped a staggering 27 points from a lead. Had their defence (which conceded 74 goals) been more solid, things might have been different.
