Everton will try to continue their resurgence and move further away from the relegation zone when they host slumping Aston Villa at Goodison Park.
QUESTIONABLE: Kevin De Bruyne (illness), Aymeric Laporte (illness) [Follow @AndyEdMLS](https://twitter.com/AndyEdMLS) OUT: Lewis Cook (knee), David Brooks (thigh), Lloyd Kelly (calf) On the other hand, the Cherries have conceded just 28 in 19 games since Scott Parker was fired following the 9-0 defeat to Liverpool (and the 3-0 defeat to Arsenal, and the 4-0 defeat to Man City, in successive games). QUESTIONABLE: Jesse Lingard (knee), Serge Aurier (knock), Ryan Yates (illness) [a 3-0 defeat at Manchester United, but the Foxes were very good for large spells of that game](https://soccer.nbcsports.com/2023/02/19/manchester-united-vs-leicester-video-highlights-reaction-analysis-recap/). Last weekend’s draw with Nottingham Forest was as shocking as it was painful for Manchester City (52 points – 2nd place), who remain two points back of leaders Arsenal having played one more game thus far. OUT: Maxwel Cornet (calf) OUT: Dominic Calvert-Lewin (thigh), Andros Townsend (knee) Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest (25 points – 13th place) have lost just one of their last seven (3W-3D-1L) and hope to avoid the end-of-season relegation scrap altogether. OUT: Jed Steer (calf) Of course, the Toffees are yet to become a goal-scoring juggernaut (to no one’s surprise), with Dominic Calvert-Lewin returning from his latest injury in last weekend’s 1-0 victory over Leeds. Since Sean Dyche arrived and replaced Frank Lampard, all that Everton (21 points) have done is win two of three games and climb from 19th to 16th in the Premier League table.

1' - Underway! Starting Lineups - No changes again for Sean Dyche as he looks to keep the consistency in the lineup. For Villa, Emery has gone with pace on ...
Villa also won their last visit to Goodison Park, with Steven Gerrard and Duncan Ferguson reprising their derby battles on the pitch when Big Dun was caretaker manager of the Blues in January ‘22 after Rafa Benitez was sacked in a 1-0 win. Starting Lineups - No changes again for Sean Dyche as he looks to keep the consistency in the lineup. The freekick was headed back into the melee, Iwobi’s shot was going wide, but it comes back off a prone Villa player, and then Maupay gets a touch on it and Mings clears off the line! 58’ - Goodison is loud, and the Blues are winning the ball in good spots with their press. Iwobi’s corner is deep and headed back across the box, and Villa can eventually clear. The crowd are really into it, thanks to what felt like a couple of harsh decisions by the ref going against the Blues. 46’ - The second half is underway. Again McNeil and Myko combine and this time it’s Onana who gets a towering header that Martinez tips over the bar! Watkins to take, straight down the middle and the visitors lead 1-0. The header floated tantalizingly towards the far corner before JORDAN EFFING PICKFORD flies across and gets a fingertip on the ball, pushes it onto the post and Tarkowksi hoofs it clear! Freekick into the box is cleared by Onana who is fouled. Fulltime Thoughts - Once again, the lack of an effective striker killed Everton, who created a bunch of chances earlier in the game but were unable to finish them.
42' - Iwobi concedes a freekick on the Everton right. Digne will put it into the box, and his former fullback partner Coleman can clear.

No Calvert-Lewin or Townsend today, with Patterson and Garner still not considered fit enough to play any part as Sean Dyche names the following side with Simms ...
[How to get rid of these ads and support TW](/members/patrons.php) Totally incompetent and potentially catastrophic way to run a football club. It was true under Lampard and it's true under Dyche. And it seems Doucoure hasn't done enough at Finch Farm to improve his shooting never mind scoring ability, he does only have two legs, doesn't he as something seems to be getting in his way. Note: the following content is not moderated or vetted by the site owners at the time of submission. So expect he'll continue as an impact sub when required, and possibly be sold on in the summer to raise funds. Gray punted in a free-kick straight to Martinez. Watkins was allowed to get forward and give Pickford's gloves a warming. Everton continued manfully to try and find more roots to goal, Mykolenko cut down right in the corner of the area by Kamara. Everton seemed to be winning the midfield until an easy turnover allowed Ramsey to charge forward and shoot wide. McNeil again conjured another excellent cross that the static Douccoure allowed to bounce off him and behind for a goal kick. Villa had a strong spell of pressure from the corner but the Everton defence held firm.
For nearly an hour, Everton were head-and-shoulders the better side, but Aston Villa hit the Toffees twice to snatch a 2-0 victory at Goodison Park.
Despite the disastrous nature of their 2022-23 season, Liverpool remain just seven points behind 4th-place Tottenham with two games in hand. It looked early like Palace was happy to defend and chase a point from Moment No. On the other hand, the Cherries have conceded just 28 in 19 games since Scott Parker was fired following the 9-0 defeat to Liverpool (and the 3-0 defeat to Arsenal, and the 4-0 defeat to Man City, in successive games). But Saturday turned out to be a day of swings and roundabouts, as Arsenal overturned a pair of one-goal deficits to win 4-2 away to Aston Villa, and Man City let a 1-0 lead slip away in the 84th minute. Yes, Real had to come home to Spain from Anfield, but maybe Klopp’s right about the challenges of three games in one week when your domestic league is this good. It goes without saying that Saturday’s trip to Goodison couldn’t come at a better time for the Villa defense. Of course, the Toffees are yet to become a goal-scoring juggernaut (to no one’s surprise), with Dominic Calvert-Lewin returning from his latest injury in last weekend’s 1-0 victory over Leeds. Up next for Everton is a trip to north London, where they’ll make up their game in hand and face Premier League leaders Arsenal on Wednesday. Five minutes later, roles were reversed as Jordan Pickford went full-stretch (and then some) to get a fingernail on Watkins’ header, pushing it onto the inside of the post but by no means clear. The game sprang to life not long after the restart when Everton were denied and opening goal in truly spectacular fashion on 55 minutes. Leeds (22 points) and West Ham United (23), who occupied 19th and 18th, respectively, heading into matchweek 25, both won on Saturday. 2 in the 81st.
Everton's lack of centre-forward threat without Dominic Calvert-Lewin came back to bite them once again.
Dyche will be dreaming of the day he can say likewise. His manager Sean Dyche stressed the collective responsibility of his players to hit the target after a 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa. But if a striker does not score regularly, link-up with midfield, or run the channels until his shirt drips with sweat, what exactly is his purpose?
LIVERPOOL, England, Feb 25 (Reuters) - Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins scored a penalty and Emiliano Buendia added a second goal as they beat Everton 2-0 in a ...
I have to do the easy part which is finish. "They put the ball in the position for me to finish. "It's always nice to score goals.

"But a lot of the performance was right, about what we think is important going forwards and for today. I prefer winning, of course, but in tough matches we have to be like we were. We were asking questions of them, and they get a penalty situation out of nothing really. Mings' long ball forward was laid off for McGinn, who threaded it through for Buendia in the area. Things finally changed midway through the second period, when a Dwight McNeil free-kick caused chaos in the Villa box. After it, Villa comfortably soaked up the hosts' pressure while threatening a second on the break themselves.
