- Home is where the heart is for Frank Lampard, who secured his first Premier League win as Everton manager at Goodison Park last time out, beating Leeds Utd 3-0 to lift them five points clear of the bottom three.
- Abdoulaye Doucoure and Demarai Gray are not yet ready to make their returns while the likes of Yerry Mina, Ben Godfrey and Fabian Delph all remain out injured.

THE PREDICTION
Everton travel to St. Mary’s Stadium full of confidence following that win over Leeds, however the Toffees struggled badly last time out on their travels, losing 3-1 away to Newcastle. They won’t phase them here following such a good performance against Leeds and as you would expect under Lampard, Everton will look to take the game to their opponents offensively. However, Southampton have proven themselves as an extremely dangerous outfit who can never be counted out in games even if they go behind. The Saints are full of confidence and with home advantage in their favour, have every reason to believe they can extend their recent unbeaten league streak. In a fixture between two naturally attacking sides, both teams to score has to be favoured for what would be the ninth consecutive top flight fixture involving Southampton.
Tip: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
