Everton face Manchester United on Saturday in yet another crucial game for the Toffees.
The Merseyside club are facing Premier League relegation for the first time ever, and sadly, their fixture list between now and the end of the season is pretty brutal.
Manchester United are first up, and while the Red Devils are, as ever, having something of a crisis of their own, they still come into this one as strong favourites.
However, Everton have to change their fortunes at some point if they’re going to stay up, and with that in mind, we’ve had a go at predicting their starting XI for this one.
We think that Frank Lampard will make three changes from the team that lost to Burnley.
The 4-4-2 shape remains, but Allan partners Abdoulaye Doucoure in the midfield rather than Mason Holgate.
There are also changes in the backline, Seamus Coleman’s leadership should be invaluable between now and the end of the season, so he comes into the side, while Michael Keane is back after his suspension.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison both start up top, and their undoubted quality could shine through against a shaky United defence.
Anthony Gordon and Alex Iwobi again start on the wings, while Jordan Pickford and Vitaliy Mykolenko make up the defensive unit.
