Latest Everton vs Aston Villa team information
Both teams go into this game in good form following their FA Cup third round wins. Everton can welcome back Calvert-Lewin and Garner from injury, but Broja continues to have serious knee problems and his future at the club is uncertain. Everton's starting line-up showed Baines' initiative, but it was a surprise to see some key players like McNeil, Calvert-Lewin and Coleman not start in the previous game.
Aston Villa will be joined by Duran, who is ready to compete with Watkins for a place. Despite their experience, they are without Barkley through injury, a loss in midfield. Torres is also out of the defence. Carlos is doubtful for fitness. Philogene's imminent departure also leaves Villa short of a potential attacking option. The game will be an opportunity to see tactical adjustments from both sides after some squad losses. While both sides are strong after the FA Cup, some personnel changes could prove surprising.
Latest expected lineup for Everton vs Aston Villa
Everton:
Pickford; Young, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Lindstrom, Gueye, Mangala, Doucoure, Ndiaye; Calvert-Lewin
Aston Villa:
Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Mings, Digne; Kamara, Onana, Tielemans; Bailey, Duran, Rogers
Latest Everton vs Aston Villa football review
Thursday was a turbulent day in Everton history. Dyche’s abrupt dismissal, just five days after the defeat to Bournemouth and hours before the FA Cup tie, reflected deep uncertainty. Baines and Coleman’s interim takeover brought an unconvincing win at Peterborough, but it did little to quell the frustration. With just three wins and 15 goals, Dyche’s departure was inevitable. He has a win rate of just under 30%, especially after a run of just one win in his last 10 games. While the defence appears to be improving, the attack has been extremely sluggish, and that is pushing the fans to the limit.
Moyes' return after 11 years will not be straightforward. His debut will be against Aston Villa, a team Everton have not beaten in eight years. The past defeat, when they let a 2-0 lead slip at Villa Park earlier in the season, has created a wary atmosphere.
Villa are in a tough spot too, having lost five straight away games and conceded at least two goals in each. However, history is on their side, having gone unbeaten in their last five trips to Goodison Park. If they lose again, Villa will have their worst record since 2016. However, being just four and two points behind Chelsea and Manchester City respectively in the race for the top four will give them something to fight for.
After a strong start to the year, Emery needs to find more stability in his team. A hard-fought FA Cup win showed there are still issues to address, especially with a busy schedule ahead. Everton under the new manager is a tough test, just before Villa have other important domestic and Champions League fixtures.
