Team News: Romelu Lukaku returns for Everton

Lukaku returns for Everton

Romelu Lukaku has returned to the Everton starting lineup against Bournemouth as Ronald Koeman's side try to maintain their unbeaten start to the Premier League season.

Lukaku, who has scored four goals in his last two games, sat out the Toffees' EFL Cup loss to Norwich City due to a toe injury.

Bryan Oviedo replaces Leighton Baines in defence in the visitors' only change from their 3-1 win against Middlesbrough last weekend.

As for the hosting Cherries, Eddie Howe also makes one change from the last league outing - a 4-0 defeat to Manchester City - as Joshua King is replaced with Callum Wilson.

Despite having been tipped for a start following his impressive performance in midweek, Dan Gosling still awaits his first league start of the season as he finds himself on the bench.

Bournemouth: Boruc; Francis, Smith, Daniels, Cook; Surman, Arter; Ibe, Stanislas, Wilshere; Wilson Subs: Federici, Ake, Smith, Gosling, Gradel, Mousset, Afobe

Everton: Stekelenburg; Oviedo, Jagielka, Williams, Coleman; Gueye, Barry; Bolasie, Barkley, Mirallas; Lukaku Subs: Joel, Deulofeu, Lennon, Cleverley, Valencia, Funes Mori, Holgate
