Everton vs Southampton

I was there at Manchester United earlier this month and the strength of support for those in Blue was astounding. “Obviously Frank Lampard is the manager, Moshiri has come out backing him. Just like they deserve every plaudit for selling out 9,500 seats at Old Trafford just days after Christmas, during a cost of living crisis and with the form book against them. Few weeks can have been as turbulent as this one and, unfortunately, at the moment it seems the drama surrounding this fine club simply will not stop. Asked what he could say to ease fans’ frustrations, Lampard said: “I don’t want to say things to ease frustration for the sake of it, it would be words. It is a profoundly sad day for Everton and Evertonians.” “As we see, it’s January, clubs around us are doing it, the Premier League is constantly moving forwards, every team. Frank Lampard’s side are currently 18th in the Premier League table. Of course we want the action of bringing people in. However, Everton will again be without James Garner and Andros Townsend for this afternoon’s game as they continue their return to full fitness. Frank Lampard revealed on Friday afternoon that Alex Iwobi will be assessed with a view to featuring this afternoon - while Dominic Calvert-Lewin is fit and 'in a good place'. The fans have spoken and this afternoon Everton supporters will do what they do best: Give everything in support of the team they love.

Everton host Southampton at Goodison Park on Saturday in a huge relegation six-pointer in the Premier League as Frank Lampard and Nathan Jones need a win.

It seems likely to find itself in another high-scoring affair as Liverpool will not have Virgil van Dijk for this one. The Reds do have a match-in-hand on Newcastle, but this is very much not the plan for Liverpool. Liverpool’s 28 points are good for sixth place, seven points behind Manchester United and Newcastle. As for City, they make eight changes to the team which lost at Southampton in midweek as Haaland and De Bruyne are tasked with unlocking this suddenly very stingy United defense. No big chances yet but City are dominating possession with United happy to sit back and play direct. His cross is blocked and then a cross is swung in but Ederson saves the header. In the form he’s in, this is the last thing Manchester United would have wanted. A tense, but intriguing, first half in the Manchester Derby. Jordan Pickford continues to do his best in goal, while Demarai Gray is a real threat on the counter. The jury is still out on Nathan Jones from most Saints fans and that will be the case until they move off the bottom of the table and start to pick up points in the Premier League. They have been better defensively for most of this season but last time out against Brighton they conceded four and it could have been more. There is growing fan unrest, once again, as the Evertonians have hit out at owner Farhad Moshiri, long-time chairman Bill Kenwright and the rest of the Everton board.

Some pre-match mischief from Everton fans, no doubt only as desperate to come away the winners today as the travelling fans.

Minute-by-minute report: A pair of big games highlight our Saturday afternoon slate. Join Rob Smyth for all the latest.

There’s a biggie in League One, with third placed Ipswich at home to the leaders Plymouth. Everton were battered 4-1 by Brighton in their last home game, and there’s an extremely febrile atmosphere at Goodison right now – so much so that the board of directors won’t be at today’s game because of a “real and credible threat to their safety and security”. There’s a game of Snakes and Ladders going on down there, and at least one team is going to step on a snake this afternoon. There are only four 3pm Premier League games, but six of the bottom eight teams – and four of the top six managers in the sack race – are in action. Frank Lampard harnessed the abundant power of Goodison Park superbly last season, but it is starting to turn against him, the Everton players and especially the board. Whether the law is an ass is a different matter.

Finally, we have a breakthrough! VAR overturns the decision after ruling that March was offside. Surely, there must be some more goals in the next 45 minutes... Hopefully that'll change in the second period... A thoroughly deserved lead for the Seagulls. The hosts have found a breakthrough! Daniel Podence gives the hosts the lead after a lung-busting run from Nelson Semedo. James Ward-Prowse has scored a sensational free-kick to give Southampton the lead. It looked like the Wales international may have strayed into an offside position... Jordan Pickford was left rooted to the spot as the ball flew into the goal. Danny Welbeck makes it three and surely wraps up the win for Brighton! It's all over in the four Premier League matches and what a set of results we have.

14' - Lavia is the first in the book for tugging down Onana on a break at the midfield line. Freekick into the box, Calvert-Lewin gets his head to it but no ...

The Blues already have a win over the Saints this season down at the south coast early in October with Conor Coady and Dwight McNeil grabbing goals in a 2-1 victory. The Toffees have just one win in their last ten games and manager Frank Lampard is facing the sack just shy of a year in the job at Finch Farm. Freekick into the box, Calvert-Lewin gets his head to it but no power and the goalie can recover. 20’ - Delightful ball behind the backline from Mykolenko finds Gray’s run, but the angle is too tight and he puts it over. Saints play the ball left to right across the top of the box, and then a deflected shot beats Pickford and the far post as well. 21’ - Danger in the box. Godfrey presses and wins the ball, finds Calvert-Lewin in space and his shot is deflected, and comes back off the underside of the crossbar with Bazunu well beaten! He tries to start off a counter but Gray helps cut it out and Onana takes a potshot from distance but it’s well-wide. JWP puts it in deep and the Blues clear. 24’ - Tarkowski bursting down the left is tugged back and Everton have another freekick. Ridiculously poor defending from Gordon there and gives away a free kick on the edge of the box. 76’ - A freekick into the box from that Crystal Palace range by Gray, Alcaraz clears for a corner.
