Everton host Leeds United at the Hill Dickinson Stadium tonight while they look to continue their fine defensive form.
The Toffees have moved into 10th place following a massive win at Aston Villa. David Moyes has prioritised defensive structure during this successful winter run. Consequently, Everton have kept seven clean sheets since the start of November. However, a devastating injury to Jack Grealish threatens their creative output tonight.
David Moyes manages a squad currently hit by a major injury blow. Notably, Jack Grealish is unavailable due to a stress fracture in his foot. Specialist doctors will determine if he requires surgery in the coming days. Michael Keane also remains out as he serves a suspension. Consequently, Moyes will look to his returning international stars for inspiration.
Jordan Pickford will continue in goal behind a resolute back four. James Garner will anchor the midfield alongside the returning Idrissa Gana Gueye. Iliman Ndiaye should reclaim his spot in the attacking trio after AFCON duty. Thierno Barry is expected to lead the line for the Toffees. He remains the club’s joint-top scorer with four league goals.
Everton predicted XI: Pickford; Patterson, O’Brien, Tarkowski, Mykolenko; Garner, Rohl; Ndiaye, Armstrong, McNeil; Barry
