It’s a big game for…

Michail Antonio: The Wandsworth-born winger was scoring for fun in the opening weeks of the season, earning himself a call-up to the England squad for Sam Allardyce’s only match in charge. However, despite the Hammers’ upturn in fortunes, Antonio’s goals have dried up. He has the ideal opportunity to end that drought against an Everton side struggling for form.

Best stat…

Everton are the only team in Premier League history to throw away a two-goal lead at home in the final 15 minutes of normal time.

Remember when…

Adrian scored in the penalty shootout in a dramatic conclusion to an FA Cup third round replay in January 2015?

Player to watch…

Romelu Lukaku: Despite Everton falling away from the leading pack, the Belgian battering ram has been a reliable goal threat. He has also netted against the Irons in all eight of the games he has played against them for his current club.
