Your support makes all the difference.Everton will look to gather more momentum in their push for European football next season when they visit Aston Villa in the Premier League tonight.
In a quirk of the fixture schedule, owing to the postponement of this match in January due to a Covid-19 outbreak in the Villa squad, this is second time the teams have met this month following Villa’s 2-1 win at Goodison Park on 1 May.
That result was a blow to Carlo Ancelotti’s hopes of securing European qualification but Everton responded by beating West Ham 1-0 on Sunday, and the Toffees would go level with David Moyes’ side with a win at Villa Park.
Dean Smith could welcome back captain Jack Grealish after their own European ambitions were derailed by the forward’s shin injury. Villa have won just three times in the 12 games Grealish has missed since February.
