The Premier League are pushing to impose a hefty points deduction on Everton that could see them catapult into the relegation zone.
Sean Dyche's Toffees currently sit 14th in the table hand have won three of their last five games. They secured a huge win against Crystal Palace in their last game before the international break.
The 10 point deduction will see the Merseyside club plummet all the way down to the bottom of the table.
It means that they now face an uphill task to stay in the division.
