Goals have been hard to come by for Everton this season.
The Toffees are the joint-fourth lowest goalscorers in the Premier League this season with 10 goals in as many games.

Iliman Ndiaye tops the charts for goals scored this season with four, a return that has seen the pressure on Sean Dyche ramp up.
Everton are 17th when it comes to chances created in the top-flight this season, creating 82 so far which could have an explanation as to why Dominic Calvert-Lewin only has two goals this campaign.
But it’s one other stat that should alarm fans about the forward.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin offside more times than anyone else this season
Chances may have been hard to come by but when presented with them, Calvert-Lewin is not helping himself.
The Premier League website has revealed that the 27-year-old has been offside more times (16) than anyone else in the league.
| Player | Number of times offside |
| Dominic Calvert-Lewin | 16 |
| Chris Wood | 11 |
| Jamie Vardy | 10 |
| Evanilson | 7 |
| Mattheus Cunha, Raul Jimenez, Bryan Mbeumo, Cole Palmer, Antoine Semenyo, Sam Szmodics | 5 |
Chris Wood of Nottingham Forest is the second highest but is still five behind Calvert-Lewin, who has featured in all 10 league games so far.
Sean Dyche should look at Calvert-Lewin replacement in January
Calvert-Lewin currently has less than a year to go on his contract and so far, it looks as if he will be set to leave Goodison Park in the summer.
The lack of striking options is a problem at the minute with both Armando Broja and Youssef Chermiti still not fit enough to play any part, meaning that it is just the England forward and Ndiaye.
Some fans have called for the 27-year-old to be dropped for the weekend trip to West Ham United and if Dyche is serious about turning his fortunes around after a torrid 11 months as manager, a striker must be targeted.
Tammy Abraham is a name that could crop up again. The Toffees were interested in signing him in the summer only for him to choose a move to AC Milan, where game time has been sporadic.
He has similar attributes to Calvert-Lewin but is more of a proven goalscorer and would represent a good piece of business.
