Joel Starts Against Hammers

Maarten Stekelenburg misses today’s Premier League fixture against West Ham United through injury.

The Dutchman’s absence means there is a first competitive appearance of the season for Joel Robles.

Meanwhile, Phil Jagielka is on the bench, with Ramiro Funes Mori coming into the starting line-up to play at centre-back.

With Ronald Koeman confirming earlier in the week that Leighton Baines is still sidelined with a hamstring problem, Bryan Oviedo keeps his place at left-back.

Enner Valencia is ineligible to play against his parent club, so there is a place on the bench for youngster Dominic Calvert-Lewin who signed for Everton from Sheffield United on transfer deadline day.
