Manchester United haven't scored a goal in six hours and 46 minutes of action.

That's worse than any other Premier League side.

There are usually goals in this fixture and it's a tie which Tottenham have enjoyed plenty of success in.

They have lost just one of their last 21 Premier League matches against Everton and have netted a club record 98 goals against them.

Everton have picked up just seven points from their last 14 visits to Tottenham but did win here in 2020.

In terms of goals, they drew 1-1 at Goodison Park in April, but Spurs had won 5-0, then 2-0, in their two previous encounters at home.

As well as a 5-4 thriller going in Everton's favour in the FA Cup in 2021, Tottenham won 6-2 in Merseyside in the last Premier League meeting between these two that took place on 23 December (2018).

Fulham

A huge moment for Rebecca Welch at Craven Cottage as she becomes the first woman to referee a Premier League match.

And a huge day too for both Fulham and Burnley.

Fresh from reaching the League Cup semi-finals for the first time, the Cottagers are seeking a fourth straight Premier League home win.

It's one win in 10 league games for Burnley, who slipped to the bottom of the table after Sheffield United's 1-1 draw at Aston Villa last night.

The Clarets won at Fulham the last time the clubs met in the Premier League in 2021.

Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola on how his side have prepared for today’s game after their match was abandoned week when Luton captain Tom Lockyer suffered a cardiac arrest:

“It has been a really strange, difficult week, especially with the game against Luton and everything that happened there, it was quite emotional.

“Then preparing for today, a change of managers, we have to prepare for different things. It’s not been an easy week.”

On facing a team with a new manager: “It’s been difficult because we had to start preparing for one thing, then change. We had some small issues with injuries and I hope we are ready for the game. I am sure that everyone that is going to play is 100%.

On keeping momentum: “We have to try and keep the good results. We still need points, we know today is very difficult. They are very physical, we will have to defend lot of crosses and direct balls. I hope we are ready.”

New Nottingham Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo has been speaking about how this week has been since his arrival at the club on Wednesday: “Intense. It’s our first day here, very intense, a lot of work. I’m quite pleased. Even in a short time, the players got engaged, we already have ideas. Hopefully it’s a good game.”

On why Nottingham Forest have had a bad run of form: “It’s not our assessment. We have to assess what we want in front of us for our future.”

See below our offerings for you across the airwaves this 'Christmas Eve Eve':

Tottenham v Everton (15:00 GMT) – Ian Dennis and Mark Schwarzer are live from London on BBC Radio 5 Live.

Liverpool v Arsenal (17:30 GMT) - John Murray and Stephen Warnock bring you a top-of-the-table clash from Anfield.

Kyle: 4 games without a goal for Manchester United is awful and they have never looked like scoring. Especially 2nd half. I think West Ham wanted it more which is an awful thing to say about a side.

DBrooks: It’s another poor performance and result from this obscenely overpaid United side, but not a surprise. The club looks clueless from top to bottom. Many more losses like this to follow - and some much worse.

The sun is out in Nottingham, and with it, I sense a degree of renewed optimism among some Forest fans.

Despite the great affection for Steve Cooper, from various fan podcasts I’ve listened to, articles written, and the few supporters I chatted with on the train, they understand the importance of backing Nuno Espirito Santo from the get-go.

I doubt the new head coach will adopt the approach of his predecessor, and come out early to embrace the pre-match applause, but I am expecting Nuno to get a warm reception.

Luton Town's last match against Bournemouth had to be abandoned after captain Tom Lockyer suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch.

He collapsed in the second half and was taken to hospital after receiving attention from paramedics and both club's medical staff.

Lockyer was later discharged on Thursday having had an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) device fitted.

Manager Rob Edwards reflected on what happened this week, saying it was "the scariest moment of his life".

"The medical guys were incredible," added Edwards.

"It was a crazy pressurised situation with the world watching and they got every decision bang on. I'm so proud of them. They saved him.

"Our medical guys, Bournemouth's, the paramedics that were there, they are real heroes."

Four matches to come at 15:00 GMT next. We keep rolling.
