Everton host Arsenal in a game where the visiting team is normally expected to be overlooked in this game.
Sean Dyche takes his seat on the home bench at Goodison Park for the first time and Everton fans are hoping they are on the end of a ‘new manager rebound’.
As mentioned, Arsenal would be expected to beat Everton with ease due to the differences in form between the two clubs, but you never know when a new manager will arrive.

Mikel Arteta was sweating from the fitness of key midfielder Thomas Partey, but is fit enough to start the game in midfield alongside Granit Xhaka.
The new signing Jorginho has arrived on the bench and could make his debut this afternoon with Arteta’s team. January signings Jakub Kiwior and Leandro Trossard are also on the bench.
