Aston Villa preview: The only team they’ve lost points to is Arsenal
Unai Emery’s team has started the season strongly again, securing a 2-1 victory at West Ham on the opening weekend.
After a 2-0 home loss to Arsenal, Aston Villa bounced back with a win in their next match away at newly promoted Leicester.
Boubacar Kamara, Tyrone Mings, Matty Cash, Diego Carlos, Jaden Philogene-Bidace, and Leon Bailey might all be sidelined for the Everton match due to injuries.
Predicted lineup: Martínez (GK), Digne, Torres, Konsa, McGinn, Tielemans, Ramsey, Onana, Bogarde, Watkins & Rogers
Everton preview: Still searching for their first point
Everton’s performance may have looked better at home against Bournemouth last time. Still, the result was likely their worst of the season so far.
Despite previous heavy losses at home to Brighton (3-0) and Tottenham (4-0), Everton’s 3-2 defeat to Bournemouth before the international break was their most disastrous result.
The Toffees led 2-0 until the 87th minute but lost 3-2. They now sit at the bottom of the table with the worst goal difference.
Armando Broja, Youssef Chermiti, Nathan Patterson, Jarrad Branthwaite, and Seamus Coleman are likely to be sidelined for the trip to the Midlands due to injuries.
Predicted lineup: Pickford (GK), Garner, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko, Gueye, Iroegbunam, Calvert-Lewin, Harrison, McNeil & Ndiaye

Our score prediction: Aston Villa 3-0 Everton
The Toffees have allowed at least three goals in their first three league games this season. Sean Dyche’s previously strong defense now appears frail, especially without the injured Jarrad Branthwaite. Also, Everton failed to score in two of their first three matches.
