Everton are back in Premier League action on Saturday as they take on Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.
The October international break is almost finished, so supporters will already have one eye on the Man City game on Saturday.
Everton head into the game off the back of a last-minute winner against Crystal Palace, which ended their 19-game unbeaten streak.
Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola’s side got a 1-0 win away at Brentford just before the break and currently reside two points above the Toffees.
With that said, the Premier League have just made an announcement ahead of the clash.
