Arsenal v Everton: match preview

This article is more than 4 years old

Everton have managed four draws at the Emirates in 14 visits and last won at Arsenal in January 1996 but they will go into this match fancying their chances more than ever in a meeting of managers who were linked with each other’s jobs when they were vacant late last year. Everton are showing decent form under Carlo Ancelotti, 17 points from 24, while Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal have improved defensively, although they are drawing more games than they would prefer. Mesut Özil is available after missing the 1-0 Europa League win at Olympiakos, while André Gomes is “ready to play” for Everton only 16 weeks after a fracture and dislocation of an ankle.
