"Starting with the hosts, while Everton might have been left hugely frustrated last weekend as they slumped to a 4-1 drumming at home against Newcastle, David Moyes' men certainly claimed an immediate response last time out. Springing an upset on the south coast as they secured a 1-0 victory away at Bournemouth, the former West Ham boss suddenly finds his squad sat within touching distance of finding a route into the European spots."
"Shown what was a costly first-half booking away at Bournemouth on Tuesday, 22-year-old Tim Iroegbunam will miss out through suspension here. Likewise, yet to make a single appearance so far this season, Everton will once again be without England international Jarrad Branthwaite. Bagging the winner in midweek and making a real impact since completing a summer loan switch from Manchester City, Jack Grealish will play a leading role in attack."
Everton host Nottingham Forest at the Hill Dickinson Stadium aiming to push into European contention. Everton responded to a 4-1 home defeat to Newcastle with a 1-0 win at Bournemouth and have won three of their previous four Premier League matches, including earlier wins against Manchester United and Fulham. Tim Iroegbunam is suspended and Jarrad Branthwaite remains unavailable, while Jack Grealish has made a strong attacking impact and James Garner is expected to operate as an unorthodox right-back. Nottingham Forest have improved since Sean Dyche's arrival six weeks ago, securing a 1-0 win at Wolves and embarking on a resurgence.
