Preview: Everton vs. Swansea City

Everton vs. Swansea

Everton host Swansea City on Sunday afternoon hoping to hit back from their disappointing 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur last weekend.

The Toffees left White Hart Lane with nothing to show for a spirited performance in North London, and manager Roberto Martinez will be keen for a response against the Swans.

Recent signing Lacina Traore is likely to make his debut at Goodison Park, while Aiden McGeady could earn a place on the flank.

Swansea boss Garry Monk has picked up four points from his first two games in charge at the Liberty Stadium, but he may opt to shuffle his pack for the trip to Merseyside.

Michu could return in place of Wilfried Bony, while Michel Vorm and Ashley Williams could be rested ahead of the club's Europa League fixture with Napoli.

Sports Mole says: 2-1
