It was an excellent end to 2024 for Bournemouth, as the Cherries rounded off the year inside the top eight positions in the Premier League standings.
However, the huge challenge for Andoni Iraola in the second half of the campaign is maintaining that consistency. Bournemouth come into this match at the Vitality Stadium after avoiding defeat in their last seven.
Meanwhile, Everton sit 16th in the Premier League, and are just three points clear of the relegation places after 18 rounds of matches. The Toffees suffered a 2-0 loss against Nottingham Forest in their final match of 2024.
