After a memorable victory over Liverpool by 2-0, Everton carried on the momentum as they beat Brentford 1-0 in their previous game. The recent victories helped them confirm their spot in the Premier League for next season as well.
The Toffees are 15th in the domestic points table with 36 points, 10 points ahead of the relegation zone with only three games to go. They will now look to finish the season on a good note. Their next game is an away fixture against Luton Town on Saturday night.
4-4-1-1 Everton Predicted Lineup Vs Luton Town
Defence
Jordan Pickford will be operating once again between the sticks. He was commendable against Brentford and managed to keep a clean sheet. Ben Godfrey should also continue to operate as the right full-back for Everton.
The centre-back duo of James Tarkowski and Jarrad Branthwaite was excellent with their defensive works. They are expected to form the heart of the defence yet again. No change in the left-back spot as Ashley Young will continue as Vitalii Mykolenko has been ruled out the rest of the season due to an ankle injury.
Midfield
Idrissa Gueye scored the only goal against Luton Town to bring three vital points. He will form the holding midfield duo with James Garner. Dwight McNeil and Jack Harrison continue to operate on the flanks.
Attacking midfield Abdoulaye Doucoure has the room to step up in the upcoming games.
Attack
Dominic Calvert-Lewin missed the previous game due to illness and Youssef Chermiti took his spot in that match. However, the latter wasn’t convincing enough in the final third. But the Toffees wouldn’t want to risk Calvert-Lewin as the Premier League berth is already confirmed.
Nathan Patterson (thigh), Dele Alli (groin), Seamus Coleman (groin), and Lewis Dobbin (ankle) are the other confirmed absentees.
