Good afternoon everyone and welcome to live coverage of another edition of festive football as Ronald Koeman welcomes former employers Southampton to Goodison Park, where they haven't won since 1997.

FT: 3-0. It took a long time to get going, but Everton positively ran riot once going ahead as Southampton collapsed. A good start to 2017 for them, and a good Christmas period as a whole, but that's three defeats on the bounce for Saints.

Boufal goes on a long run from inside his own half to the Everton penalty area before passing to Rodriguez who chips wide.

GOAL! 3-0. What's happening? Davies intercepts a Fonte pass and tees up Lukaku who smashes home from 12 yards.

Great clearance from Williams under his own crossbar with Fonte lurking in the background.

Barkley off, Barry on.

Rodriguez is played in but Joel comes out to smother the shot.

GOAL! 2-0. Baines goes to his left, Forster dives to his left. Everton double their undeserved lead.

PENALTY! Everton given a spot kick after Yoshida goes through the back of Valencia and doesn't win the ball.

Fonte gives the ball away in his own half and Mirallas passes to Lukaku, who looks to curl one into the top corner but without much success as it flies wide.

A disgruntled Puel sends on Long in place of Clasie.

Fonte slices a cross behind for an Everton corner over his own goal.

GOAL! 1-0 to Everton! Coleman's cross is met by Lukaku and Forster makes a great save but the rebound, having come off Lukaku, falls to Valencia who stabs home.

Coleman makes progress down Everton's right but his cross is far too close to Forster, who hardly has to move to claim.

Bets chance of the game so far! Rodriguez sets up Redmond with a nice flick into the box but, having steadied himself, Redmond fires first time straight at Joel.

Boufal comes on for Tadic. Southampton have really missed his spark today.

Lukaku spins away from Fonte and dribbles up to the edge of the box before scuffing a shot wide.

First Valencia, in space down the right, cuts the ball back behind Mirallas and then Yoshida makes a great block from a Coleman cross.

Lennon, who like most has been quiet, is replaced by Valencia.

You would imagine both managers will be turning to their benches soon. We're yet to see a shot in this second half.
