Everton are prepared to mark their Goodison Park send-off with an excellent gesture towards the Toffees’ faithful.
Everton play host to Southampton this weekend in a game that doesn’t mean a lot in terms of the season, but it holds a lot of importance for the history.
With just two games remaining in the Premier League season, this clash will be the final one to be played at Goodison Park before the Toffees move into their new home at Bramley-Moore.
Everton supporters will see the capacity of their ground increase by over 13,000, and their final showing at Goodison Park will see the club recognise their support throughout the campaign.
Goodison Park farewell set to be huge occasion
An era that has lasted 133 years will finally draw to a close this Sunday when the Saints make the trip to Merseyside, and there is no doubt it will be an emotional occasion for all involved with Everton.
MORE TOFFEES STORIES
Goodison Park has hosted some huge moments in the history of Everton football club, and they will be keen to end their stay on a high against relegated Southampton.

The atmosphere will be electric, and via a report from EFC Daily, all supporters will be gifted a commemorative scarf detailing all of the significant moments to have occurred at Goodison.
All supporters are encouraged to wear blue, and to remain in the stands after the full-time whistle with a celebration of their history taking place on the pitch.
Everton need to end Goodison stay with a win
Everton will not want to end their Goodison era with a defeat, especially against one of the worst sides in Premier League history, naming this encounter quite an important one despite there being nothing material on the line.
Moyes will want to end the season on a high anyway, to ensure that the Toffees have some momentum to take into the new campaign, where they will be hoping to return to the top half of the Premier League table.
