Everton lineup vs. West Ham: Predicted XI for Premier League clash

Everton manager David Moyes will have to cope without in-form striker Beto available for Saturday’s Premier League clash with West Ham United at the London Stadium.

The 28-year-old scored his fifth goal in six games during the Toffees’ 2-1 derby defeat to Liverpool last weekend before being withdrawn in the second half following a clash of heads with Ibrahima Konate.

Moyes has since confirmed that Beto is unavailable for selection as he is required to serve concussion protocols, so Thierno Barry is expected to start as the centre-forward this weekend.

Joining Beto and Jack Grealish (foot) in the treatment room is defender Jarrad Branthwaite, who has been ruled out for the rest of the season after being stretchered off with a hamstring injury during the defeat to Liverpool.

In the absence of Branthwaite, Michael Keane - fresh from signing a new one-year contract extension - is set to deputise at centre-back alongside James Tarkowski, with Jake O'Brien and Vitaliy Mykolenko retaining their starting spots at full-back.

Key midfield trio James Garner, Idrissa Gueye and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall are all expected to start again, while Iliman Ndiaye and Dwight McNeil are set to continue on the flanks, though Tyrique George is a contender to replace the latter on the right.

Everton possible starting lineup:

Pickford; O'Brien, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko; Garner, Gueye; McNeil, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye; Barry
