Everton heads to Villa Park today, looking to end Aston Villa’s impressive home winning streak.
David Moyes’ team is sitting in 12th place in the standings. They come into this match after a letdown in the FA Cup, where they lost to Sunderland in a shootout. The Toffees are struggling, with only one win in their last seven matches. Historical stats are not in their favor, as they haven’t won against Villa in the league since 2019.
Everton Team News
The squad is facing several challenges with player absences. Michael Keane is suspended. Idrissa Gueye and Iliman Ndiaye are away on international duty for the AFCON final. Additionally, injuries keep Jarrad Branthwaite, Seamus Coleman, and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall out of the lineup for this match.
Jack Grealish returns to the starting lineup after serving a suspension and is expected to receive a tough welcome from the home crowd. He will need to lead a weakened Everton team. Jake O’Brien will team up with James Tarkowski in defense, while Harrison Armstrong and Merlin Röhl join James Garner in a refreshed midfield. They will need to compete against Villa’s stronger squad.
