Everton full injury list, suspensions and availability ahead of Arsenal

Everton have a number of injury issues to deal with ahead of their next Premier League fixture against Arsenal.

The Blues travel to the Emirates Stadium to face the league leaders looking to claim a vital three points in their fight to avoid relegation.

Last weekend saw Everton suffer a 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa, which saw the Blues drop back into the relegation zone.

In terms of injuries, Everton have the likes of Andros Townsend, Nathan Patterson, James Garner and Dominic Calvert-Lewin who have spent time on the sidelines in recent weeks.

Here is a look at the current injury and suspension situation that Sean Dyche has to deal with ahead of the next fixture.

Injuries

Andros Townsend

Towsend has been sidelined with a serious knee problem since the end of last season, after he suffered an ACL injury.

The winger is still recovering from the injury, with the initial timeframe from the issue originally set to be March 2023.

It remains to be seen when Townsend will be fit to feature for Everton once again.

Nathan Patterson

Patterson has been sidelined with a knee injury since the start of January, and is currently in the latter stages of his recovery.

However, Dyche has already confirmed that the full-back is not yet ready to make a comeback to the Everton first team.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin

Calvert-Lewin has been sidelined with a hamstring injury since the start of February. He has played just one match since Dyche took over as manager in place of Frank Lampard.

When asked about Calvert-Lewin’s fitness, Dyche said the striker is “recovering”, with no timeframe set on when he will be back available again.

James Garner

Garner has been sidelined since November after suffering from a back injury, but is nearing a return.

The midfielder could take part in an Under-21s fixture against PSV Eindhoven later this week, but will not be involved against Arsenal on Wednesday night.

Suspended

Everton currently have no players unavailable through suspension for the upcoming Premier League fixture with Arsenal.
