On Saturday afternoon, Everton will welcome West Ham United at Goodison Park in a match that is sure to be exciting.

The Toffees supporters don’t need much to make a loud commotion, and after their four-point boost this weekend, they should be back in full force.

Sean Dyche’s team has breathing room on the relegation zone after moving up to 15th place in the Premier League standings from 17th.

The Merseysiders will be keen to close the gap with The Hammers as they now lie five points ahead of Luton Town, who are in 18th place.

A well-known figure will be in the opposing team’s dugout as former Everton manager David Moyes is expected to return to Goodison.

In order to get his team back into the victory column and back on the scoreboard, 52-year-old Dyche will need to make the correct team selections.

Our predicted XI for Everton vs West Ham United

In the wake of last weekend’s scoreless draw away at Brighton & Hove Albion, the Everton manager is anticipated to make one change.

Naturally, Jordan Pickford will continue to start for the team. The only player with more clean sheets than the England captain is Ederson of Manchester City.

The back four is probably going to stay the same, with Jarrad Branthwaite and James Tarkowski sticking together well.

Ben Godfrey is anticipated to start at right-back for the seventh time this season, with Vitaliy Mykolenko taking over at left.

Idrissa Gueye and James Garner, who have established themselves as a duo in midfield, may not change out wide.

Given that both Dwight McNeil and Jack Harrison have had difficulty making an impact during the attacking phase this season, Lewis Dobbin, a rookie player, might get an opportunity right away.

Dobbin has only started one league game this season, which came in the loss to Wolves in August. However, following several cameos in recent weeks, he may be primed to contribute right away, though we still believe he will mostly likely come off the bench.

We have chosen to make the crucial decision during the onslaught. Dominic Calvert-Lewin will lack confidence in front of goal because he hasn’t scored since October.

This is where Youssef Chermiti, a summer signing worth £15 million, comes into play. The teenage striker is eager to impress Dyche after scoring twice in an under-21 match earlier this week.

The 2004-born athlete, who was captained by Portugal at the juvenile level, is obviously a gifted player, but he hasn’t received much playing time this season.

Chermiti will continue to behind Abdoulaye Doucoure in the rankings.

Everton predicted XI (4-4-1-1): Pickford, Godfrey, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Harrison, Gueye, Garner, McNeil; Doucoure; Chermiti.
