Fabian Delph has failed a late fitness test and misses today’s game with Southampton.
Marco Silva had rated the midfielder as a “ big doubt” on Thursday because of a hamstring problem and despite giving the 29-year-old every chance, the Blues have been forced to admit defeat.
Silva, already without Andre Gomes and Jean-Philippe Gbamin, has picked Morgan Schneiderlin and Tom Davies in a midfield two.
Anthony Gordon has made the bench while there is no Moise Kean in the squad.

Cenk Tosun starts upfront with Richarlison, Gylfi Sigurdsson and Theo Walcott playing in behind him.
Silva keeps faith with the back four that started against Spurs with Lucas Digne ©, Mason Holgate, Yerry Mina and Djibril Sidibe protecting Jordan Pickford’s goal.
Jonas Lossl is on the bench alongside Leighton Baines, Michael Keane, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Alex Iwobi, Seamus Coleman and Gordon.
Everton XI - Pickford, Sidibe, Holgate, Mina, Digne, Schneiderlin, Davies, Sigurdsson, Walcott, Richarlison, Tosun
