LIVE NOW: Twins VS Guardians
Dean Smith’s Struggle and Lampard’s Homecoming
Dean Smith is currently looking for his ideal arrangement and starting lineup. Teemu Pukki, their star player, is not getting the support he requires, resulting in a lack of confidence and a single goal in their last six games, all against a ten-man Newcastle squad. The team has never lost its opening five games of the season.
Frank Lampard takes on his first home league encounter as Everton manager. His record with past clubs is not encouraging; he did not win his first home games with Derby or
Chelsea, while Derby suffered a 4-1 loss to Leeds in Marcelo Bielsa’s debut away game.
