Defender Nathan Patterson looks set to be offered a chance by Frank Lampard as he waits to make his Everton debut.
The Scotland cap moved from Rangers for a club record fee in January but Seamus Coleman is keeping him out of the team on the right side of defence.
Having been brought in by axed boss Rafa Benitez, Patterson has yet to make his first-team debut under Lampard with Celtic flop Jonjoe Kenny emerging as the back-up right-back.
