Everton are set to play host to Ipswich Town on Saturday.

The Toffees already have their next fixture in mind after their midweek win over Wolves.

David Moyes' side are through to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup after a 1-0 Hill Dickinson Stadium win.

Charly Alcaraz scored the only goal of the night to secure victory over the Old Gold.

Attention now turns back to the Premier League as the Tractor Boys make the journey to Merseyside.

Gary O'Neil is getting a positive tune out of his side, so Everton need to be on their game as we assess how they could line up.

Will Jake O'Brien start vs Ipswich Town?

There were a few changes against the Championship side as rotation was utilised in the League Cup.

That didn't stop Jordan Pickford from getting the nod, and he is likely to start at the weekend.

The same could be said about Vitalii Mykolenko and Ainsley Maitland-Niles who could remain in the side.

Alterations may be in store for the centre of defence as both Michael Keane and Jake O'Brien could drop out.

That may see James Tarkowski and Jarrad Branthwaite return to the starting XI in the Premier League.

They could be supported by Hayden Hackney and James Garner in midfield as the pair could feature together from the start once more.

The same could be said for Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, while questions will surround the fate of Tyler Dibling.

Will Tyler Dibling start again for Everton?

There was plenty of positivity surrounding the former Southampton talent in the Carabao Cup.

The 20-year-old was a consistent threat down the right and ultimately grabbed the assist to seal victory.

It still might not have been enough for Moyes to trust him in the Premier League.

Tyrique George could come back into the starting XI, with Jack Grealish potentially set to start on the left.

They will all be working with the goal of supplying Thierno Barry as he could start again despite failing to net against Wolves.
