Everton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin says victory over Arsenal on Sunday will set the right tone for next season.

Fifth-placed Arsenal are a point behind fourth-placed Liverpool and must win Sunday's game as they hope to seal a top four finish and qualify for next season's Champions League.

"We want the victory to take into summer and next season," Schneiderlin told the club's website.

"It's going to be a hard game because Arsenal still have to play for the Champions League.

"The main thing we want to do is improve our away form next season and if we can find a bit of confidence in our last game then we will take it into next season."

Everton have struggled away from Goodison Park in the league - only win four matches

Schneiderlin also said that Everton must maintain consistent form in both home and away fixtures to finish higher next season.

"We need to find a good balance and not have such different results and performances at home and away. If we do that, we can have a great season and maybe get a place in the top four," he added.
