This Sunday's Sky Sports Six-a-Side match-up sees Everton host Arsenal, with the Gunners hoping to cement their grip on the top four.

Arsenal recorded a 10th successive home win on Monday as they saw off Newcastle 2-0 thanks to goals from Aaron Ramsey and Alexandre Lacazette, and are now just a point behind local rivals Tottenham in third.

It has been quite the upturn in form for Everton as of late. Marco Silva's side have just the solitary loss in their last five games and won their last two matches by a 2-0 scoreline, while they have kept four clean sheets out of a possible five.
