Wolves vs Everton: Preview and Predicted Lineups | OneFootball

Everton will be looking for their first win on the road as they prepare to face Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux Stadium on Saturday.

The Blues beat Brighton 2-0 in their last Premier League match at Hill Dickinson Stadium and repeated that scoreline in the second round EFL Cup game with Mansfield Town at the same venue.

Back-to-back wins erase some of the apprehension and concern that had taken place after the Toffees languished in a 1-0 defeat at the hands of newly-promoted Leeds United at Elland Road in their league opener.

Wolves vs Everton: Team News and Predicted XI

Everton Team News

Everton will have Vitalii Mykolenko available for this match after the Ukrainian left-back made his return from injury in the cup game against Mansfield Town. Mykolenko played 87 minutes of that game and looked impressive after a short spell on the sidelines.

This will allow James Garner to return to his natural position after the midfielder had to deputise at left-back following Mykolenko’s absence against Leeds and Brighton.

The Blues will, however, miss Jarrad Branthwaite, Adam Aznou and Nathan Patterson for the trip to Molineux.

Tyler Dibling, signed from Southampton earlier this week, is expected to make his first Premier League team sheet for Everton this weekend.

Everton predicted starting XI: Pickford; O’Brien, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko; Gueye, Garner; Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish; Beto

We have a great chance for another 3 points.We will, finally, have a bench that can affect a game.When we look back at the last few seasons and what we can now put on the park the transformation is fantastic

Well done to our new owners for putting a professional team in place.Improvement will be slow but will hopefully be consistent.

Finally we can argue about who are starting 11 is!!!

Anyone else planning on parking at Goodison tomorrow morning to catch the coach to Wolves, forget about it. Email just received, as there’s a clash with ladies friendly against Juventus there’s no room. I guess someone at the club has just realised. These pesky fixtures just seem to take the back office by surprise.

That team is probably bang on as long as Myko came through unscathed on Wednesday. The question is who drops out when Dibling gets his start? Has to be Garner or Dewsbury-Hall.

Predicted lineup looks about right and should be strong. Wolves may well be without Strand Larsen which should help but they have a strong central midfield in Andre and Joao Gomes and I worry about Gana and Garner winning that battle.

Definitely a good shot at 3 points though Molineux is no easy place to play and Wolves will be desperate for their first points.

First goal will be crucial as ever but if KDH, Grealish and Ndiaye are on form then we should be able to create some chances. Having Mykolenko back will be crucial and should allow Grealish to stay a little further up the pitch hopefully.
