Abdoulaye Doucoure scored the winner in Everton's 1-0 victory over Sheffield United at Goodison Park.
Despite the match having a somewhat end-of-season atmosphere, with neither team having significant stakes, Everton were the better side, creating numerous scoring opportunities and deserving of the win.
Doucoure found the back of the net in the 30th minute with a close-range header into an empty goal, capitalising on Dominic Calvert-Lewin's well-placed cross.
While the Tofees had already secured their survival, clinching victory in their final home fixture extended their unbeaten streak to five games.
Meanwhile, Sheffield United's defeat saw them become the first team to concede a record-breaking 101 goals in a single season.
In the final day, Everton will head to title-chasers Arsenal, while Sheffield United's dismal campaign concludes at home against Tottenham Hotspur.
