Tough game, potential tricky tie.
4-1 to Everton. Gordon to get off the mark tonight.

Old habits die hard heyThis might be our banana peel game.
Lewis Gibson one of only three fit centre backs on our books has now started his season long loan at Reading.
This loan just seems incredibly stupid to me, we have three centre backs not 33, now we have only two, so unless they have someone coming in absolutely immediately, today or tomorrow and there were reports we've cooled our interest in Tomori, we're one injury away from a crisis.
Tbh I'm not happy playing either Keane or Mina against Fleetwood now, it's just asking for trouble.
Play either tonight and watch him get injured', play both and double your chances of it happening.
Welcome to the world of Digne or even Delph as a centre half against Palace.
It could only happen here...
No point getting worked up over something out of your control, have to believe they have something lined up for this to go through.Lewis Gibson one of only three fit centre backs on our books has now started his season long loan at Reading.

Yeah there's always that, although in this case I wouldn't think so, he shone on loan last year, they probably think it's better to get him playing again this season. Only a thought....there might also be a view they don’t think Gibson is good enough.
...I wonder if Con Ozinoudus will make an unexpected elevation to the squad (@blueloon will have a more informed view than me), but from what I’ve seen he does offer more mobility and speed than we currently have.
Connolly, Astley might also be in the picture as could Pennington although I think he’s injured.
He only played at Haig Avenue on Monday night so unlikely to be considered tbh...
he would probably have been rested if lining him up for tonight.
Same for Connolly and Astley

It'll be Keane/Mina or one of them with Coleman/Digne. I expect a loan signing in by weekend though (maybe).
