The Everton vs Arsenal game will be played at 1.30 PM UK time or 8:30 AM EDT at the Goodison park in what would be a blockbuster of a clash. The Merseyside club are on a roll with a 5 match winning streak in the league with their last defeat suffered at the hands of Chelsea. Everton are just 4 points behind Arsenal with a game in hand, which makes this tie even more interesting and three points against Arsenal could prove to be crucial for the Toffees who can dare to finish inside top four for the first time.
For the Gunners, it doesn’t get worse than this. They have forced themselves in a situation where Roberto Martinez’s men have a real chance to overtake them and finally end Arsene Wenger’s record of never missing the Champions League. But is finishing 5th a blessing in disguise for the Gunners? Well, that’s a different issue altogether. Coming back to the match, the Gunners have been buoyed by the return of Aaron Ramsey and Nacho Monreal, who as confirmed by Arsene Wenger will be in the squad tonight.
For the home side, captain Phil Jagielka who is suffering from a hamstring injury will continue his rehabilitation works alongside midfielder Steven Pienaar who is out with a problem in his knee. However, Ross Barkley would be the main concern for Martinez as the midfielder suffered a calf strain against Fulham last weekend, but should be available for the game.
For the Gunners, Ramsey and Monreal are fit again and will make it to the squad while centre-half Laurent Koscielny, midfielders Abou Diaby and Mesut Ozil fall short. Elsewhere Theo Walcott and Jack Wilshere continue to remain absent.
Everton: Howard; Coleman, Baines, Stones, Distin; Barry, Deulofeu, McCarthy, Naismith, Barkley; Lukaku
Arsenal: Szczesny; Sagna, Gibbs, Mertesacker, Vermaelen; Flamini, Cazorla, Arteta, Rosicky, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Giroud
Stats compiled from au.eurosport.com
A league game with the result being valuable as a cup final. Both the teams simply cannot afford to lose this game if they are to qualify for the Champions League. Although Everton are the in-form team, considering Arsenal’s past and Wenger’s expertise to finish inside Top four, I expect the Londoners to give everything for this game. A 2-1 win for the travelling side.
For Viewers in US, the match will be telecasted by NBC Sports Network and for UK viewers it will be televised by Sky Sports.
Highlights will be posted as soon after the end of the game.
