Team News: Enner Valencia to make first Everton Premier League start against Arsenal

Valencia to make first Everton PL start

Everton manager Ronald Koeman has made four changes ahead of his side's Premier League clash against Arsenal at Goodison Park on Tuesday night.

Enner Valencia comes in for his first Premier League start since joining the Toffees, while Aaron Lennon is also included from the off.

Gerard Deulofeu and Kevin Mirallas are the men to make way from those wide positions, while further back, Ross Barkley and Phil Jagielka replace Gareth Barry and Ramiro Funes Mori.

Arsenal, meanwhile, have made just one change from the side that started the 3-1 victory over Stoke City at the Emirates Stadium at the weekend.

Shkodran Mustafi picked up an injury in that game and could be out for up to three weeks, with Hector Bellerin stepping into the team tonight.

He will slot in at his customary right-back spot, allowing Gabriel Paulista to move into the middle to partner Laurent Koscielny.

Everton: Stekelenburg, Coleman, Baines, Jagielka, Williams, Gana, McCarthy, Lennon, Valencia, Barkley, Lukaku Subs: Joel, Deulofeu, Mirallas, Cleverley, Mori, Calvert-Lewin, Holgate

Arsenal: Cech, Bellerin, Gabriel, Koscielny, Monreal, Coquelin, Xhaka, Walcott, Ozil, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Sanchez Subs: Ospina, Gibbs, Holding, Elneny, Iwobi, Lucas, Giroud
