Everton manager Sean Dyche makes two changes from the side that started the 2-0 win at Burnley for the Blues’ Carabao Cup quarter-final against Fulham at Goodison Park.
Jarrad Branthwaite and Idrissa Gana Gueye are both recalled to the starting line-up, having served one-match suspensions for the accumulation of five yellow cards last time out.
Ben Godfrey drops to the bench, while Abdoulaye Doucoure - who was withdrawn at half-time of the Turf Moor clash with a hamstring issue - misses out on the matchday squad.
James Tarkowski continues to captain the Blues in the absence of Seamus Coleman.
Michael Keane retains his starting berth after a goal and Player of the Match display against Burnley, as does Nathan Patterson.
Jordan Pickford, Amadou Onana, James Garner, Jack Harrison, Dwight McNeil and Dominic Calvert-Lewin complete the Toffees’ starting XI.
