🔵Everton | Form: W🟢W🟢L🔴W🟢D🟡:

 

David Moyes's side enters this clash with high defensive confidence, looking to preserve a record of 11 wins in their last 20 home league games.

Despite missing Jack Grealish and Carlos Alcaraz through injury, the Toffees boast a settled backline anchored by Tarkowski and goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.

The Reds are looking to snap a poor run of form where they have conceded an average of 1.67 goals per match over their last six outings.

With their top-four hopes at stake, finding clinical finishing away from home is a top priority for the technical bench this weekend.

🔵 Everton (possible):

Pickford, Keane, Tarkowski, O’Brien, Mykolenko, McNeil, Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall, Gueye, Garner, Beto.
