Sean Dyche may have to wait three tense minutes if Everton makes four changes against Man City.
Everton secured a hard-earned point in the Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur at Goodison Park on Saturday.
Despite Richarlison twice putting Spurs in the lead in the first half and Jack Harrison scoring for Everton, Jarrad Branthwaite’s stoppage-time goal leveled the score, earning Everton a draw.
Looking ahead, Everton faces a challenging match against Manchester City at the Etihad this weekend. Manager Sean Dyche may consider making some changes to the lineup, especially in the defensive area.
While players like Jordan Pickford, Jarrad Branthwaite, James Tarkowski, and Vitalii Mykolenko are likely to maintain their positions, the right-back position presents a conundrum.
Ben Godfrey, who started against Spurs, impressed, but options like Seamus Coleman and Nathan Patterson could be considered.
In midfield, Idrissa Gueye returned after Senegal’s AFCON exit, partnering with James Garner.
Dyche expressed hope for Amadou Onana’s availability, describing him as ‘touch-and-go’ for the upcoming match after a week of rehabilitation.
However, Abdoulaye Doucoure and Andre Gomes are likely to miss out due to injuries.
Regarding the attacking lineup, Arnaut Danjuma is ruled out due to an ankle injury sustained in the previous game. Lewis Dobbin provided energy off the bench against Tottenham, potentially influencing Dyche’s decisions.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin, despite having a goal disallowed in the last game, may face competition for a starting position, with Beto and Youssef Chermiti also in contention.
