The club had a minus-two goal differential on the campaign. It's been a tough preseason for Everton thus far, as the club has yet to win a game this summer, most recently falling 1-0 to the Blackburn Rovers, who play in the Championship, the second level of the English soccer hierarchy. Before that, Everton drew 1-1 against Accrington Stanley, which may sound like an insurance company but is a soccer team that plays on the fourth level of British soccer, EFL League Two. Needless to say, that was a troubling result for Everton. Can the Toffees begin to turn things around on Saturday when they take on Bournemouth? Or will Bournemouth keep Everton's summer of woes going today? Tune the channel to NBC at 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon to catch some English Premier League soccer preseason action as Everton FC takes on Bournemouth.

Shot-happy Antoine Semenyo not to be underestimated despite tricky first fixture
DREAM TEAM managers should know about Antoine Semenyo by now but too many remain ignorant. The Bournemouth midfielder was among the most underutilised players in the game last season and, while it's early days, his ownership ahead of the 2025/26 campaign is a modest 2.5% at present. 3 In fairness, Semenyo's low ownership may be because the Cherries are due to face defending champions Liverpool at Anfield in Gameweek 1. Needless to say, this difficult fixture is a valid reason to stay clear of the 25-year-old from the get-go but our latest SCOUT REPORT seeks to convince Dream Team bosses of his credentials in a broader sense. After all, Gameweek 1 is just the start. Semenyo racked up 262 points last season at an impressive average of 6.2 per game. However, the most interesting stat about the Ghana international regards shots on target. In 2024/25, only three midfielders registered more shots on target than Semenyo's tally of 46: Cole Palmer (57), Alejandro Garnacho (53), Bruno Fernandes (50). It's worth noting that those three players had additional European fixtures to bolster their schedule. 3 In the Premier League, only Mohamed Salah, Erling Haaland and Palmer let fly with more shots than Semenyo. This is all to reinforce what every Bournemouth supporter already knows; their No24 is not shy when an opportunity presents itself. There are many avenues to points in the world of Dream Team these days but it's truer than ever that gaffers need to stack their XI with plenty of firepower if they are to be competitive. Semenyo's shot-happy nature means he's an asset worthy of due consideration when the fixtures align for Andoni Iraola's side. 3 Bournemouth's unenviable trip to Anfield represents a tough opening but they follow that up with a home game against Wolves plus a Carabao Cup fixture (opponent TBC) in Gameweek 2. Might Semenyo be a smart selection for the first double Gameweek of the season? He finished last season with 13 goals and nine assists to his name - only seven players in his position found the net more often in all competitions.

Semenyo explains why he signed new contract after Newcastle and Spurs interest
Manchester United, Newcastle and Tottenham have all been interested in Antoine Semenyo this summer but the Ghana star will now be staying with Bournemouth long-term Antoine Semenyo is eager to continue his growth at Bournemouth after shunning transfer interest from rival Premier League clubs to sign a new five-year contract with the Cherries. A slew of top-flight clubs, including Manchester United, Newcastle and Tottenham, have all been credited with an interest in the Ghana star after Semenyo, 25, enjoyed his most productive Premier League season under Andoni Iraola last term. It was reported last month that Bournemouth were standing firm on their £70million valuation of the former Bristol City star after losing both Dean Huijsen and Milos Kerkez already this summer; a price which was said to be 'deterring' Semenyo's suitors. But a transfer has now been taken out of their hands with Semenyo putting pen to paper on a deal until 2030. Explaining his decision, Semenyo told 'I've grown so much at the club, both on and off the pitch, and I'm really happy to have signed ahead of returning for pre-season. 'From the fans to the staff and my teammates, I can't speak highly enough of the people around the club. It's a great place to be and I'm excited to get back to Bournemouth and continue the hard work with the new season just around the corner.' Bournemouth's president of football operations, Tiago Pinto, added: 'Antoine has been crucial to the club's progress and is a key member of the project here at Vitality Stadium. 'We have a great relationship with Antoine and we're looking forward to continuing that as we hope to build on a record-breaking season. His commitment to the club matches our ambition and I'm excited to see what can be achieved as we prepare for the new campaign.' While Manchester United and Tottenham were said to have cooled their interest in Semenyo after enquiring about the versatile forward, who scored 13 times last season, links to Newcastle have continued in recent days. United have since pressed ahead with a move for Bryan Mbeumo - their No.1 target - while Tottenham have been linked with Eberechi Eze in recent days. Newcastle are now pursuing Anthony Elanga and have tabled an offer for the Nottingham Forest winger, who has impressed for the Reds since leaving Manchester United back in the summer of 2023.
