Everton Predicted Lineup to Face Arsenal In Premier League Clash<\/h2>\n

How Everton Have Lined Up<\/h3>\n

The Everton defence has had consistent personnel for the last month of games. Jordan Pickford and James Tarkowski have started every match this season. Since returning from injury, Jarrad Branthwaite<\/a> has joined the latter in the centre of defence. Vitaliy Mykolenko and Ashley Young are the first-choice wing-backs.<\/p>\n

Orel Mangala started his sixth league match of the season in the last match against Wolves. Alongside the Belgian central-midfielder was Idrissa Gueye. Abdoulaye Doucoure has had shifts deeper in midfield as well as in the attacking midfielder role.<\/p>\n

Dwight McNeil and Iliman Ndiaye<\/a> have both been deployed across the wings and central attacking roles. Dominic Calvert-Lewin<\/a> started once again as a striker after Guinea-Bissau striker Beto<\/a> earned a start two games ago against Manchester United.<\/p>\n

Everton\u2019s Recent Form and Tactics<\/h3>\n

Everton\u2019s 4-0 win in their last match at home to Wolves has separated them from the relegation zone. They sit five points clear with a game in hand.<\/p>\n

They now face an Arsenal team that has become the premier set piece team this season. Dead ball situations are a focus of the Toffees as well, scoring 19 from set pieces last season. Everton will likely have minimal possession, meaning set pieces will be the main source of chances.<\/p>\n

The Toffees defence has returned to form in the past month, keeping three clean sheets in their last four games. They will need to keep this against the fourth best attack in the league.<\/p>\n

Everton Injuries To Consider<\/h3>\n

In this week’s press conference<\/a> manager Sean Dyche went through the squads fitness status. The Toffees started the season with a run of injuries to first team players. Currently the only major injuries are Tim Iroegbunam and James Garner. Youssef Chermiti and Armando Broja are working their way back to full fitness after significant time on the sidelines.<\/p>\n
