11: The amount of Premier League games the visitors have played without a win. Their last victory was on the opening day of the season, a 1-0 victory away to Bournemouth.

Remember when…

The teams drew 2-2 at Goodison Park in 2011. A late penalty from Leighton Baines secured a point for the hosts that day.
