Everton will play their final match at Goodison Park when they face Southampton in their penultimate Premier League game on Sunday.
The Toffees defeated Fulham 3-1 in their previous league outing, while Marco Silva’s side played out a 2-2 draw with Manchester City last weekend.
Match Preview
David Moyes was brought in by Everton to secure Premier League promotion, which he did in style by leading them to an impressive run.
However, since relegation fears have diminished, their performances on the pitch have also deteriorated.
Back-to-back defeats to Man City and Chelsea was followed by a 2-2 draw with Ipswich Town. But the Merseyside outfit returned to winning ways at the expense of Fulham last weekend.
Moyes’ men conceded an early goal but rallied to score thrice through Vitaliy Mykolenko, Moise Keane and Beto, claiming their ninth win of the season.
On the other hand, Southampton will enter Sunday’s match on the back a goalless draw with City last time.
The Saints were in danger of recording the lowest points tally in Premier League history, but the point against Pep Guardiola’s side helped them avoid that ignominy.
Team News
Jake O’Brien has picked up an unspecified injury, so he is set to be out for the home clash. James Tarkowski will also be sidelined for Everton, alongside Jesper Lindstrom and Orel Mangala.
Meanwhile, Southampton don’t have many injury woes this weekend. Kyle Walker-Peters is the only doubt for the Saints, after he missed the game against City due to illness.
