Everton XI Confirmed For Ipswich Clash

Jack Grealish makes his first Premier League start of the season, while Harrison Armstrong returns to David Moyes' XI, for today's clash against Ipswich Town at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

After playing in Wednesday's 1-0 Carabao Cup victory over Wolves, Grealish retains his spot on the left flank, with Brennan Johnson getting the nod on the right wing, and Thierno Barry continuing as the Toffees' striker.

Armstrong missed the Wolves win with a minor knock but is fit again to join James Garner and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall in central midfield, as Hayden Hackney drops to the bench.

Everton's backline stays the same from last weekend's goalless draw at Spurs: captain James Tarkowski partnering Jarrad Branthwaite – called up by England on Friday – in central defence, with Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Vitalii Mykolenko the full-backs, and Jordan Pickford in goal.

Everton XI: Pickford, Maitland-Niles, Tarkowski (c), Branthwaite, Mykolenko, Garner, Armstrong, Dewsbury-Hall, Johnson, Grealish, Barry.

Subs: Travers, King, Keane, O'Brien, George, Dibling, Alcaraz, Hackney, Graham.
