Lukaku back for Everton's clash with Manchester City

Everton will be boosted by the return of top-scorer Romelu Lukaku for Wednesday's Premier league trip to Manchester City.

Romelu Lukaku will return to Everton's starting XI for Wednesday's Premier League clash with Manchester City.

The Belgium striker missed the weekend win over Dagenham and Redbridge in the FA Cup due to an ankle injury sustained against City in the first leg of Everton's League Cup semifinal last Wednesday.

But the former Chelsea man, who has scored 19 goals in 25 appearances in all competitions this season, has been passed fit to start at the Etihad Stadium.
