Here’s the latest team news and confirmed lineups as Everton host Bournemouth at the Hill Dickinson Stadium in the Premier League. Both sides have been on a good run of results recently, each with two wins and three draws in their last five games. Everton have gotten results whilst on the road this season, but they will be hoping to carry on that form at home, something they have struggled with thus far. Bournemouth could move up the table if they secure the three points, with the chance to overtake the Toffees in the rankings. It’s all to play for on Tuesday in Merseyside. 

Everton vs Bournemouth Confirmed Lineups & Team News

Everton Team News

With the majority of his squad back to match-fitness, other than Jack Grealish,  manager David Moyes has more options on the bench and will hope to begin a positive home run. Speaking in his pre-match press conference, the Scotsman said: “We have got to try to turn our away form into good home form. 

“We have done a good job, we just need to make sure we can pick up another few wins at our stadium. 

“We are always looking to see what it may well be. We have a great new stadium, the sooner we start getting used to it the better. 

“Everybody enjoys it, we do, but maybe the opposition quite like it as well.”

Out: Jack Grealish (foot injury). 

Available: The rest of the squad remain fit and available for the fixture.

Bournemouth Team News

Andoni Iraola and his squad make their first visit to the Hill Dickinson Stadium, with the manager saying in his pre-match press conference: “I am looking forward to seeing the stadium and seeing the atmosphere,”  

Commenting on Everton as the competition, Iraola said: “”I hope we are at the level as they’re in a very good moment, and it is going to be very demanding. 

“Sometimes it is difficult to open the games against them as defensively, they are so solid. 

“They are very strong in set-plays, and they have three defenders that lead in aerial duels. 

“I hope we can control the game and not give them as many chances to threaten our box.”

Out: Justin Kluivert (knee injury), Tyler Adams (knee injury), Marcus Tavernier (thigh injury), Ben Gannon-Doak (hamstring injury) and Julio Soler (undisclosed injury).

Available: Bournemouth don’t welcome any players back into the matchday squad, although some players that are currently injured are starting to get back into training.
