Everton’s expected starting line-up against Norwich - with Richarlison and Yerry Mina decisions made
Everton could hand debuts to Nathan Patterson and Anwar El Ghazi after arriving from Rangers and Aston Villa respectively, while Richarlison and Yerry Mina have returned to training.
Everton bid to get their Premier League form back on track when they travel to Norwich City today (15.00).
The Toffees have been in woeful form, having won just one of their past 12 top-flight matches and dropped to 15th in the table.
Pressure has piled on manager Rafa Benitez as he bids to get Everton out of their current predicament.
However, the Blues did beat basement side Norwich 2-0 in the reverse fixture at Goodison Park in September.
And they defeated Hull City 3-2 in the FA Cup third round last weekend.
Benitez also has good news on the injury front, with Richarlison and Yerry Mina back in training.
The Goodison boss has decisions to make about whether he throws them into the deep end.
He will also be weighing up whether to hand debuts to Nathan Patterson and Anwar El Ghazi (loan), who arrived from Rangers and Aston Villa respectively during this month’s transfer window.
Here’s how we think Everton will line-up at Carrow Road.
1. Goalkeeper - Jordan Pickford
Was given a rest in the FA Cup and will be desperate for a clean sheet.

4. Centre-back - Michael Keane
His place may depend on Yerry Mina’s fitness. Everton might not risk the Colombian, though.
