PREM: Everton v Watford preview


Everton v Watford preview

Everton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin is fit to face Watford in their final home match of the season.


The Frenchman missed the last two games with a thigh problem but is now ready to return at Goodison Park, where Watford will be hoping for a result to mathematically guarantee their survival - although they're six points clear of the relegation zone with a far superior goal difference to Hull in 18th.

Question marks hang over Everton as they head into the game, with the future of Ross Barkley up in the air after Ronald Koeman said he had one more week to decide his future at the club.

On the visit of Watford, though, Koeman said he hopes for three points to thank the fans for their support this season.

"We've had some great wins - we've had a great home season," he said. "The fans deserve a win tomorrow."
 
Aside from Schneiderlin's return, goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg has a groin injury so Joel Robles will be recalled for Everton. Midfielder Muhamed Besic features in the squad for the first time this season after a serious knee injury.

Watford defender Jose Holebas should be available for the Premier League match at Everton following a foot injury. Midfielder Tom Cleverley is ineligible to face the Toffees under the terms of his loan deal, which is to become a permanent switch in the summer, but Ben Watson should travel after recovering from his groin problem.

Centre-back Miguel Britos (leg) and Craig Cathcart (knee) are still not fit while Younes Kaboul (hamstring), Roberto Pereyra (knee) and forward Mauro Zarate (anterior cruciate ligament) all continue their rehabilitations.
