It’s 19th versus 1st in the Saturday lunchtime match, as Everton take on Arsenal at Goodison Park.

Kick-off on Merseyside is at 12:30 GMT.

Sean Dyche takes control of the Toffees for the first time and has made two changes from predecessor Frank Lampard’s last game in charge a fortnight ago.

Dwight McNeil, who is reunited with his former Burnley boss, and Abdoulaye Doucoure are recalled, as Yerry Mina and Demarai Gray make way.

The Arsenal team news is simple: they are, once again, unchanged in the league.

That means that Thomas Partey is fit, with the Ghana international having been forced off in the FA Cup defeat to Manchester City a week ago.

New signing Jorginho joins fellow January recruits Leandro Trossard and Jakub Kiwior on the bench for the visitors.

    Everton need to be careful. They are under threat of resembling a football team.

    1. Zimo

      Tells u how bad a manager Lampard is.

    2. FantasyTony

      Squad isn't bad on paper. They likely underperformed under Lampard who is a terrible manager.

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Yes, it is bad. Championship level squad.

        1. FantasyTony
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Nah there's at least 3 worse in the league.

          1. Dušan Citizen
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            2 years, 11 months ago

            Only Bournemouth

          2. Dušan Citizen
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            2 years, 11 months ago

            They have like 3 or 4 attacking players only. There are even some better wingers and strikers in Championship.

  2. Random Name
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Nketiah is watching the game along with everyone else here

  3. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Everton are enjoying football again.

  4. JBG
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Did not expect Arsenal to struggle like this.

  5. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years

    DCL has been so good

  6. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Commentator just said Odegaard one to look on. Trod on earlier and not moving the best.

  7. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Nketiah miss

  8. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Nketiah should have got that on target.

  9. Sandy Ravage

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      They have had the best chances

    2. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Absolute drivel

    3. Brehmeren
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Clearly not watching

    4. Sandy Ravage
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Possession: Eve 27% - Ars 73%
      They're defending deep and countering well

      1. Sandy Ravage
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        BBC Sports website:

        "Arsenal continue to struggle to break down this packed home defence."

        1. Sandy Ravage
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Onana, Gueye & Doucoure are playing well

  10. Zimo
    • 7 Years

    What ever happened to Foo Fighter?

    Did he implode, give up, lurk or given his marching order?

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Retired smugly knowing he was right about Salah regressing

    2. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Made so many awful predictions he probably changed name

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years

    4. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Remember that, even by his own admission, he's yet to see a season through to the end, always gives up halfway through

  15. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Almost 1-0 Everton there

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

  20. BobB
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Everton look a different team. Why couldn't Big Fat Frank get this out of them?

    1. Marvin.
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      He sucks.

    2. Supersonic_
      • 4 Years

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Sean Dyche is not just a man. He is a philosophy.

    4. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

  27. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Okay, we might need to talk about Lampard

    1. Sandy Ravage
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      about how he keeps getting managerial jobs?

  28. Zimo
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Another chance missed. Doucoure with a horrible header. No one marking him.

    1. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago
