Everton vs Southampton

Everton host Southampton at Goodison Park on Saturday in a huge relegation six-pointer in the Premier League as Frank Lampard and Nathan Jones need a win.

It seems likely to find itself in another high-scoring affair as Liverpool will not have Virgil van Dijk for this one. The Reds do have a match-in-hand on Newcastle, but this is very much not the plan for Liverpool. Liverpool’s 28 points are good for sixth place, seven points behind Manchester United and Newcastle. As for City, they make eight changes to the team which lost at Southampton in midweek as Haaland and De Bruyne are tasked with unlocking this suddenly very stingy United defense. No big chances yet but City are dominating possession with United happy to sit back and play direct. His cross is blocked and then a cross is swung in but Ederson saves the header. In the form he’s in, this is the last thing Manchester United would have wanted. A tense, but intriguing, first half in the Manchester Derby. Jordan Pickford continues to do his best in goal, while Demarai Gray is a real threat on the counter. The jury is still out on Nathan Jones from most Saints fans and that will be the case until they move off the bottom of the table and start to pick up points in the Premier League. They have been better defensively for most of this season but last time out against Brighton they conceded four and it could have been more. There is growing fan unrest, once again, as the Evertonians have hit out at owner Farhad Moshiri, long-time chairman Bill Kenwright and the rest of the Everton board.

Some pre-match mischief from Everton fans, no doubt only as desperate to come away the winners today as the travelling fans.

Alex McCarthy and former Everton forward Theo Walcott are also doubtful for the game. However, they will take confidence from their progress in both the FA Cup and Carabao Cup.
