Everton prepare to entertain Blackburn Rovers at Goodison Park on Sunday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Toffees are clearly on top, winning 55.00% of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Goodison Park was just last season, in August 2008, with Blackburn R. inflicting a narrow 2-3 defeat upon the Toffees in a Premier League match.
