Team News
Everton
Leeds
- Lucas Digne is facing two months out injured with an ankle injury in a major blow to Everton.
- Jean-Philippe Gbamin and Seamus Coleman are the only other injury concerns for Everton at the moment.
- Carlo Ancelotti changed shape to 3-4-3 last weekend in a bid to stop a run of three straight defeats and it worked, largely, with a 3-2 win over Fulham.
- It means James Rodriguez can stay higher up the pitch without having to track back, which was becoming a weakness for the Toffees.
- Alex Iwobi impressed last weekend in an unfamiliar right wing-back role but may be required on the left here with Digne out. Jonjoe Kenny may come into the side here.
- Mason Holgate will push for a recall in defence but may have to settle for anther spot on the bench here.
- Rodrigo played for Leeds' U23s at the start of the week as Marcelo Bielsa wants his summer signing to be fitter after a bout of COVID-19. He may have to settle for a spot on the bench here.
- Kalvin Phillips returned to the starting XI after a stint out injured with a shoulder problem to boost Leeds' midfield options, but Pablo Hernandez missed out against Arsenal through injury.
- After such an impressive display against Arsenal, Bielsa may name an unchanged starting XI against Everton this weekend.
James 0 goals 0 assists
I have no idea how this match finished with only 1 goal. Exciting stuff, should've been 2-2 at least
xG Everton 1,29 Leeds 3,11....last week Leeds 1,96 Arsenal 0,71...bravo Marcelo
@Pastore10 Where did you find those xG stats ?
@Rensen understat.com/league/EPL
Bielsa is a genius, this squad maybe the weakest in PL, but definitely the poorest, with the lowest wage frame.
@Pastore10 huh? Kavlin Phillips, Rodrigo, Koch, Raphinha, Harrison, Messlier, Alioski, Ayling, all good players!
@richccfc you forgot Klich..
@Pastore10 Bielsa tried to sign a lot of players but they all seem to turn Leeds down due to the wage structure.
@Rensen De Paul or Buendia would fit well in his philosopy, hard workers, but even creative midfielders.
Amazing fist half
Everton 3-2 Leeds
3-1
@Rensen I would be shocked if Leeds don't win 3-2
under (3,5)
one of the best match of the day, BTTS and maybe a victory for the home side
over 2.5
Game is poised very nicely for goals, both teams to score + over 2.5 looks good value. Here comes the 0-0 or 1-0 .....
4-4
2-1 Everton win
