Sean Dyche provides Everton injury update on Dominic Calvert-Lewin and three other players

Everton injury news ahead of the trip to Luton Town in the Premier League.

Sean Dyche is hopeful that Dominic Calvert-Lewin can return to Everton duty for the trip to Luton Town on Friday.

The Toffees make the trip to Kenilworth Road having already secured their Premier League status. Three successive victories, culminating in a 1-0 win over Brentford, ensured that Dyche has guided Everton to safety despite being deducted eight points.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin was not risked against Brentford due to a mixture of a knee injury and illness. But the striker is back training and Dyche is hopeful he will be involved.

Beto has missed the past two games because of concussion protocol after sustaining a head injury in a 2-0 win against Nottingham Forest. He is back in contention after being given the green light.

Seamus Coleman has been unavailable for the previous three games because of a groin complaint. The captain is also back in training having underwent sessions with the club’s sports science team in recent days.

Meanwhile, Lewis Dobbin made a return to action for the under-21s in a 3-0 defeat by Derby County earlier this week. The 21-year-old forward hasn’t made a first-team outing for six weeks because of an ankle problem. However, Dyche is optimistic that Dobbin could feature but need to be fair on the youngster’s fitness.

Vitalii Mykolenko has been ruled out for the rest of the season with ankle ligament damage he suffered in the 2-0 Merseyside derby victory over Liverpool. Nathan Patterson (hamstring) also won’t feature in the final three games while Dele Alli (groin) has not played this campaign.
