Goodison Park will host Premier League football in its final season after Idrissa Gueye's strike sealed a 1-0 victory for Everton over Brentford.
After scoring the opener in the victory over Nottingham Forest last Sunday, Gueye's influence has shone through during a perfect week for Sean Dyche's side, who backed up Wednesday's colossal Merseyside derby victory with a third straight win.
His swept finish on the hour-mark sparked the game into life after both sides had struggled to create chances in a game low on quality but of great significance.
The only goal came moments after Jordan Pickford saved superbly to deny Ivan Toney in Brentford's only big chance of the contest. The result moves Everton above their opponents into 15th place on 36 points - an unassailable gap to 18th-placed Luton in the relegation zone
