Injury Expert shares early Everton team news v West Ham United
Everton are set to be without four first-team players for their Premier League clash against West Ham on Sunday 29 October, according to injury expert Ben Dinnery.
The injury expert shared on his website Premier Injuries that Dele is the only player ruled out of the clash with injury for Sunday’s game at the London Stadium, Ashely Young is also ruled out through suspension after his two yellow cards in the Merseyside Derby.
Andre Gomes and Seamus Coleman, who are yet to feature this season are doubts for the game against the Hammers with Dinnery placing their fitness status at 25%. However, they could return in early November.
Another difficult test
Everton will certainly feel hard done by after their defeat to Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday (21 October) having to play large parts of the game with ten men after Young’s sending-off and the fact that Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate didn’t get his own two yellows in a controversial decision from Craig Dawson.
Dyche will have been reeling after that match and felt his team had no sort of luck for the game. However, they will have to pick themselves up again because West Ham at the London Stadium is yet another difficult encounter.
The Hammers, fresh off a heavy 4-1 defeat to Aston Villa on Sunday will be looking to right those wrongs at Villa Park which means Dyche’s men certainly have to be on the ball if they’re to get a result on Sunday.
The Toffees last tasted victory in East London in May 2021 when Dominic Calvert-Lewin grabbed the only goal in a crucial 1-0 win under the tutelage of Carlo Ancelotti and how Dyche could do with that sort of victory this time around.
Everton will be set to make some key changes for the game and once guaranteed change will surely be Nathan Patterson coming in to replace the suspended Young – a huge test for the Scottish international to stake a claim under Dyche again.
