Latest Everton vs Bournemouth team information

Everton fans are expecting Moyes to field his full squad for this game, however, with the important Merseyside derby on Wednesday, rotation is a possibility.

With Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Armando Broja and Youssef Chermiti all on the injury list, Beto is likely to take the centre-forward position. Meanwhile, Iliman Ndiaye remains an irreplaceable name in attack.

Dwight McNeil is also out with a fitness issue, but the good news is that James Garner and Tim Iroegbunam have recovered from injuries and could feature. New signing Carlos Alcaraz, who has joined on loan from Flamengo, could also make his debut in this match.

Coach Iraola has frequently rotated Bournemouth's squad in previous rounds, and this could be repeated in the next match, although the opponent is stronger and the team is facing many difficulties in terms of personnel due to injuries.

Bournemouth are without loanee Max Aarons as well as right-backs Julian Araujo, James Hill and Adam Smith. Centre-back Marcos Senesi is also sidelined with a thigh problem.

Dango Ouattara continues to fill in at striker as Evanilson and Enes Unal are yet to return. Luis Sinisterra and Alex Scott, who could be given a chance to play, are also recovering from injuries.

Everton:

Pickford; Patterson, Tarkowski, Keane, Young; Harrison, Garner, Gueye, Iroegbunam, Ndiaye; Beto

Latest Everton vs Bournemouth football review

After a difficult start to their FA Cup third round campaign at home to Peterborough United without a permanent manager and deep in a relegation battle, Everton have made positive changes in less than a month, appointing a new manager and escaping the relegation zone.

Everton - Bournemouth Live - Premier League: Football Scores & Highlights - 28/05/2023

David Moyes' return marks his second spell at the club. Despite losing his first game, he has guided the team to three consecutive wins - the first by a team outside the Premier League's top eight this season - leaving Everton nine points clear of the relegation zone.

Sean Dyche has only managed three wins in 19 league games this season, while Moyes has managed the same number in just four since taking charge. Leighton Baines and Seamus Coleman took temporary charge of the third-round win over Posh.

With relegation looming, Everton fans will be hoping for a memorable cup run to warm up the atmosphere in the final months of the season, as they have not reached a final since 2009, under Moyes.

It is 30 years since Everton won this competition, their last major trophy, and on their last two visits to Wembley they were beaten in the semi-finals by Liverpool and Manchester United.

Playing at home will be a big advantage, as Everton have won eight of their last 10 FA Cup games at Goodison, however, they did lose at home in the fourth round last season, to Luton Town.

Luton have made things difficult for Everton in the past, and Bournemouth have done the same regularly, winning seven of their last nine meetings, including both league meetings this season.

Despite this, Bournemouth have not beaten a club three times in a season since 2012-13 (vs Carlisle United). Everton have won both FA Cup meetings between the two sides (1937 and 2016).

History favours the visitors as they have the chance to reach the fifth round in consecutive seasons for the first time, however, coach Andoni Iraola may not see this as a top priority as he battles for a top-four spot and a Champions League place.

Bournemouth have only progressed past the fourth round four times in their history and have been knocked out at this stage 11 times.

Iraola's side went further last season, but were knocked out by Leicester City in the fifth round. They last reached the FA Cup quarter-finals in 2021, their best run in the club's history.

Bournemouth, who have never qualified for European competition before, are in a good position to do so this season, sitting just one point off fifth place, which would guarantee them a place in next season's Champions League.

This also means that the top 8 will all have a chance to qualify for European cup competitions. Currently, Bournemouth are 4 points ahead of ninth-placed Fulham, creating a difficult situation for coach Iraola in choosing the squad.
