Ben Godfrey and Yerry Mina are both set to face a sustained period on the sidelines after picking up injuries in the first game of the season.
Godfrey was stretchered off after 15 minutes following a tackle in front of the Gwladys Street end. Mina left the pitch during the second half with an issue suffered off-the-ball. Both players had serious injuries last season.
Following the game, which Everton lost 1-0 to Chelsea, Blues boss Frank Lampard simply said: "When it rains, it pours." Everton have been linked with Conor Coady in recent days and, with the Wolves centre back left out of his side's starting line-up today, finding another centre back may move up the list of priorities for Lampard in the final weeks of the transfer window.
