Arsenalvs.Everton

The Englishman has been linked with a shock January move to Mikel Arteta's team, despite now going 10 games without finding the back of the net in the English top flight.

Calvert-Lewin could not directly contribute to the 4-0 demolition of Wolverhampton Wanderers on December 4, but he should reprise his role up front as Sean Dyche puts out an unchanged XI.

The striker's supporting cast of Iliman Ndiaye, Dwight McNeil and Abdoulaye Doucoure ought to remain untouched, while Orel Mangala continues in midfield after his goal in the Wolves crushing.

Idrissa Gueye should link arms with the former Nottingham Forest man in the double pivot, while Jordan Pickford, James Tarkowski and Jarrad Branthwaite could have their work cut out for them at the back.

The same can be said for Vitaliy Mykolenko and Ashley Young, the latter of whom became the oldest player to score a free kick in the Premier League with his stunning strike against Wolves.

Chermiti (unspecified), James Garner (back) and Tim Iroegbunam (ankle) are all out of contention for the visitors, while Michael Keane (knee) will need a late fitness test.

Everton possible starting lineup:

Pickford; Young, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Mangala, Gueye; Ndiaye, Doucoure, McNeil; Calvert-Lewin
