Everton-Aston Villa, the probable formations

Everton and Aston Villa face each other in the midweek round of the Premier League. Kickoff at 8:30 p.m. at Goodison Park. The Toffees are looking for a success that has been missing for more than a month in the league, while the Villans want to improve their performance away from home.

David Moyes returns to Goodison Park 12 years later, called upon to lift Everton and break a winning fast against Aston Villa that has lasted since 2016. After Sean Dyche's exoneration, Moyes è ready to shake up the team, which has struggled to capitalize despite a solid defense. For this challenge, the former West Ham coach will have to do without Broja, Iroegbunam, Garner, Coleman, McNeil and Chermiti, with Calvert-Lewin in doubt; Beto è ready to replace him in attack.

Aston Villa, meanwhile, arrives in Liverpool with the goal of breaking the away curse, after five consecutive defeats away from home. Despite their difficulties away, Emery’s men are fighting for a Champions League spot and cannot afford any more missteps, with the challenge against Everton as the first crucial obstacle. For the match, the Spanish coach will not have Pau Torres, Philogene, Diego Carlos, McGinn and Barkley available, while Martinezès presence is in doubt.

Probable lineups

Everton (4-2-3-1): Pickford; Patterson, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Mangala, Gueye; Harrison, Doucoure, Ndiaye; Beto. Coach: Moyes.

Aston Villa (4-3-3): Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Mings, Digne; Onana, Tielemans, Kamara; Bailey, Watkins, Rogers. Coach: Emery.
