Dominic Calvert-Lewin does not make it into the Everton squad for their Premier League match at Chelsea.
The striker’s return from a hamstring issue had looked unlikely heading into the trip to Stamford Bridge. It has now been confirmed, meaning attention will turn to the other side of the 16-day break for the return of the 25-year-old.
Calvert-Lewin’s absence comes as Sean Dyche names an unchanged first XI as he hopes to follow up the home win over Brentford with a positive result at a ground Everton have not won at since late 1994.
