Everton have drawn their past four games, having held Liverpool to a goalless stalemate in the Merseyside derby last week.

Now Lampard will be hoping to finally get a triumph on the board but face a tall order against early leaders Arsenal.

The Blues currently have several injury problems, but will be hoping to get players back available. Some could even make the trip to the Emirates Stadium.

We take a look at the latest injury situation at Goodison Park.

The striker suffered a knee injury on the eve of the Premier League season.

As a result, Calvert-Lewin has not made a single appearance this season.

Lampard confirmed after the derby that the England international was due to return to training this week.

He said: “Dominic will be training next week, we hope. At that point we’ll have good options.

“Dominic is a big player for us. I haven’t experienced him as much I would want but I experienced one of the best days of my life when he headed in that ball last year.

“We understand what he can bring to the team. Hopefully we can get him fit and firing and then our options look stronger, naturally, because he’s an England striker.”

Potential return game

Arsenal (A), Sunday 11 September.
