Everton boss reveal strong starting XI v Bournemouth

Everton will be seeking to bounce back after losing to Premier League newcomers Luton last weekend when they play Bournemouth on Saturday.

The defeat to Luton would have come as a surprise, especially given Everton had won their previous two games against Aston Villa and Brentford.

The forthcoming encounter versus Bournemouth at Goodison Park is essential right now. If Everton lose, it appears that they will be embroiled in the relegation race this season.

Their opponents have yet to win this season, whereas a win for the Toffees would provide much-needed morale boost.

Everton Team News for the Match Against Bournemouth

Everton are dealing with three injuries as of this writing. Dele Alli, Seamus Coleman, and Andre Gomes are presently unavailable for selection.

None are anticipated to return for the upcoming match against Bournemouth. They are still being evaluated and hope to return by the end of October.

Sean Dyche will also reveal more squad information in his press conference later this week, before of the Premier League encounter.

Everton Lineup Prediction vs. Bournemouth

Following the Toffees’ defeat to Luton Town last weekend, manager Sean Dyche will be forced to select a more offensive squad. A win in this game is critical, especially because it is being played at home. Everton are anticipated to keep the same back line, with 21-year-old Jarrad Branthwaite considered as a vital player. Branthwaite was recently linked to Premier League heavyweights Manchester City.

Dyche is prioritizing midfielders above forwards as he attempts to fit four natural central midfielders into a team that typically employs three. As a result, James Garner has become more of a right-sided winger. Dyche must favor his strikers if Everton are to defeat Bournemouth.

It appears that an attacker, such as Jack Harrison, should be preferred versus Bournemouth. Dwight McNeil and Harrison are both versatile players that can play on either wing. Harrison should start on the right because he has played more games there than McNeil. Tony Cascarino, a talkSPORT analyst, described the former Leeds attacker as “terrific.”

There is a case to be made that Dyche should start Arnaut Danjuma on the wing instead of McNeil, but it appears that the manager will continue with the player he has worked with at Burnley.

Meanwhile, given that Idrissa Gueye was replaced at halftime against Luton, it would be wise to retain him on the bench for the start of the match. The midfielder appears to be the best alternative for sacrifice. This would put Amadou Onana beside Garner in his more natural position, in central midfield.

Abdoulaye Doucouré would play right in front of them, with the in-form Dominic Calvert-Lewin leading the line.
