There will be no goals up for grabs, given that Everton is already safe and far from the European zone and Ipswich Town is instead arithmetically relegated, but the match scheduled for Saturday at 4 p.m. Italian time is nevertheless of some importance being the penultimate, in history, to be played on the historic Goodison Park field, which will close its doors for good at the end of the season to make way for the brand new Everton Stadium.

The Toffees are coming off two straight knockouts, against Manchester City and Chelsea, where they showed the usual problems in attack that have affected this season: against Manchester City and Chelsea.

The Toffees are coming off two knockouts in a row, against Manchester City and Chelsea, where they showed the usual problems in attack that have conditioned this season: former Udinese man Beto has the task of reversing the trend and, among other things, finding a goal that the Portuguese has been missing since Feb. 22 (2-2 against Manchester United). Harrison, Doucouré and Ndiaye will play behind him on the three-quarter.

L’Ipswich comes into the final part of this championship with a roster that it is impossible not to call disappointing: as if that were not enough, the Tractor Boys come from the knockouts against Arsenal (4-0) and Newcastle (3-0) that have further saddened the environment. To at least take the satisfaction of expelling Goodison Park, coach McKenna will rely on Delap in attack, supported by Taylor, Enciso and Clarke.

Probable lineups:

EVERTON (4-2-3-1): Pickford; Patterson, O’Brien, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Gueye, Garner; Harrison, Doucouré, Ndiaye; Beto. All. Moyes.

IPSWICH TOWN (4-2-3-1): Palmer; O’Shea, Woolfenden, Burgess, Greaves; Morsy, Cajuste; Taylor, Enciso, Clarke; Delap. All. McKenna.
