Everton vs Arsenal: TV channel, team news, lineups & prediction

Everton host Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon just two days after the Merseyside club announced 777 Partners as their new majority shareholder.

The Toffees are yet to win a top-flight game this season and look set to flirt with the relegation zone for another painful nine months - a familiar position for many of the teams under the umbrella of the multi-club model run by 777.

In a bid to ease the financial turmoil that 777 Partners are inheriting, Everton were one of just four Premier League clubs to turn a profit in the summer transfer window.

Only Chelsea registered a larger net spend than Arsenal in the off-season. That outlay has helped the Gunners to ten points from four games despite mixed displays. Yet, as Everton can attest, it can be difficult to get results in the Premier League even when playing well.

Here's everything you need to know about Sunday's match.

How to watch Everton vs Arsenal on TV and live stream

Everton team news

Sean Dyche has been lumbered with a swollen glut of injuries. Seamus Coleman and Dele Alli have no chance of featuring while doubts linger over summer arrivals Youssef Chermiti and Jack Harrison.

Lewis Dobbin and Michael Keane are both carrying knocks. Andre Gomes is still an Everton player (for now) but has a calf problem. However, centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite is expected to be fit despite pulling out of England Under-21 duty with a groin issue.

Both Dominic Calvert-Lewin and James Tarkowski have suffered injuries above the shoulders. Everton's talismanic striker could be fielded in a mask to protect his damaged cheekbone while Tarkowski has had the international break to recover from a suspected concussion against Sheffield United.

Everton predicted lineup vs Arsenal

Everton predicted lineup vs Arsenal (4-5-1): Pickford; Patterson, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Young; Garner, Gueye, Doucoure, Onana, Danjuma; Beto

Arsenal team news

Thomas Partey damaged his groin during Arsenal training at the end of August. The Ghanaian FA predicted that the central midfielder will be "out for a couple of weeks" - a diagnosis that Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta backed up.

Mohamed Elneny has returned to the pitches of London Colney but is short of match fitness after a serious knee injury, leaving Declan Rice as the team's only naturally defensive midfielder.

Summer arrival Jurrien Timber is very much in the initial stages of recovery after undergoing surgery on his knee in August.

Everton vs Arsenal score prediction

Everton may be marooned on one point from four games but their performances offer more hope for optimism. The Toffees may have only scored their first league goals of the season against Sheffield United ahead of the international break but Dyche has seen his side rattle off 24 shots on target - more than 15 Premier League teams, including Arsenal.

Arteta spent six and a half years as a player at Goodison Park but has a wretched managerial record against his former employers. Only Manchester City (eight) and Liverpool (five) have beaten Arteta's Arsenal more often than Everton (four). The Gunners have lost all three visits to the blue half of Merseyside under Arteta, including a galling 1-0 reverse on Dyche's debut last February.

Despite their specific struggles against the Toffees, Arsenal have been impressive travellers in recent months; since the start of last season, no team can better their 11 away clean sheets. Up against a misfiring Everton side, the Gunners should break their Goodison Park hoodoo with another shutout this Sunday.

Prediction: Everton 0-3 Arsenal
