Everton vs Burnley: Preview, Predicted Lineups and Where to Watch

The conundrum for Moyes is Armstrong or McNeil or George…
He won't change anything else.

The conundrum with Moyes is his tactics.

Play George on the right and keep Ndiaye on the left.

No need for McNeil in this one, we need pace and directness.

Beto deserves another go after his effort at the weekend, so for me it's Tyrique George for McNeil and Harrison Armstrong for Dewsbury-Hall, although Tim Iroegbunam played well against these last time.

I'd be very surprised if David started George.

Happy, but surprised.

That's why they will be relegated long before the season is over.

It could be a horrible game, trying to break them down. George has got a good shot on him, start him and he'll score. Ndiaye has got his energy and hunger back.

I agree with Jay -- start Beto with George and Ndiaye alternating wings throughout.

Surely an opportunity to seize.

But if it is the same old with no risk being taken, it could have the opposite effect.

Just do it, Moyesey, and give him an hour to find his feet.

Not many games have been easy for Everton, especially the ones at Bramley-Moore Dock, with it being nearly 3 months since we last won a game there.

Since that victory, we have taken 2 points from a possible 18, so I think most people would take any kind of victory tomorrow night.

Moyes has switched Ndiaye to the left though.

I can't see any changes, but is McNeil match fit for two games in 3 days?

I would like to see -

Back 4 staying the same, with Dibling or George on the right, Ndiaye on the left (his best position);
Gana rested after a big shift at the weekend, replaced with Armstrong or Rohl;
Beto up top after earning his spot.

It amazed me that Barry got similar rating on most sites, he certainly did a job but I thought Beto's performance was the best I've seen of the two this season. Granted, that's been a pretty low bar.

Yes, I thought Beto had a very good game.

Possibly the main reason Barry got a load of votes was that he scored the winning and novel goal!

Wondering if Beto subconsciously feels more up for it this time of year? It's just starting to get less chilly and, him previously being used to a warmer climate, he wouldn't be the first.

It was also around this time last year he had a purple patch; anyway, hopefully it continues.

We are 4/7 for tomorrows game, but anybody backing us at that price has been asleep for the last 12 months. With our home ginx and Burnley starting to find some good form anything can happen in this game.

I am one of natures pessimists I admit, but it does look like another banana skin to me.

I hope I'm very wrong obviously, because another 3 pts will be very handy indeed.

Moyes is constantly criticised for changing a winning team… Forest and Villa?

It is something that also happened when he changed the team for Chelsea, after they had just had two wins on the spin.

What I'm getting from Moyes is the 11 that works(ed) away to Newcastle, might not work at home Vs Burnley.

Even though Moyeses rock blunted Newcastle's scissors - football has more permutations than that.

Coleman (IMO obvs) may or may not be injured - but he's definitely not fit for the Premier League anyway

He taking one for the team freeing up space on the bench and Moyes is preping us for changes.

God preserve me from Moyes having too much choice to 2nd guessing himself with.

When he finally does his Rachel Riley thing and picks 4 from the top line and 5 from the bottom...let's face it Pickford & Beto have to start...giving us the 9 outfield starting names - hopefully he gets it right.

I know there's no easy games, and plenty (not me) are talking Europe.

But it's Burnley ffs, not Barca - they're down there for a reason.

Let's break this HD hoodoo

Mykolenko is a very poor crosser of a ball. Two assists in 120-plus games for us.

Yes, I know it's Scotland... but a goal is a goal!

Damsgaard plays for Brentford, doesn't he?

He won't play Patterson so he is refusing to give us the balance on the flanks that I think is required when a team gets more possession of the football. I personally believe our results at home have suffered because of this.

I got confused after their mad game at the weekend.

I know it's not going to happen, but Aznou getting put on the permanent naughty step after his social media stuff is Moyes's stubbornness at its worst.

I wonder whether we might see George starting and maybe, if we are very lucky, we might even get a glimpse of the lesser-spotted Dibling.

Another player never given a chance at the club.

If we get more goals, at least let the fringe players get valuable minutes.

I don't mind O'Brien defensively. I don't think he has had many defensive nightmares playing as a full-back, but I just don't think he can attack and join in enough further up the pitch and it really frustrates me watching him playing as a full-back in our home games.

George has looked like a player with pace and ability, maybe he will play on the left? I don't know, but another thing that really frustrates me is the lack of game time young players get from the bench.

Let's keep it tight boys, a clean sheet is my first thought.
