Salomon Rondon will lead the line for Everton tonight against Queens Park Rangers as Anthony Gordon comes in for his first start of the season.

Rafa Benitez has made five changes from Saturday night’s defeat at Aston Villa with Jonjoe Kenny, Mason Holgate, Tom Davies, Andre Gomes and Gordon coming in.

Asmir Begovic continues in goal with Kenny, Holgate, Ben Godfrey and Lucas Digne making up the defence.

Everton are without Richarlison, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Seamus Coleman, Jordan Pickford, Fabian Delph and Jean-Philippe Gbamin through injury.

Yerry Mina is not included in the squad tonight.

While James Rodriguez remains in Qatar as he talks over a move to Al Rayyan.

EVERTON: Begovic, Kenny, Holgate, Godfrey, Digne, Gomes, Davies, Townsend, Iwobi, Gordon, Rondon.

SUBS: Lonergan, Keane, Allan, Gray, Doucoure, Branthwaite, Simms.
