With Alex Song back in contention there’s no reason why Sam Allardyce shouldn’t name his strongest XI against Everton tonight.
With just Diafra Sakho and Cheikhou Kouyate unavailable, we’ve got the strength behind us to take advantage of an injury-ravaged Everton side.
Andy Carroll’s superb goal against Swansea on Saturday will have given him the confidence to add to the four goals he’s scored this season, while Enner Valenica will have undoubtedly been told to get himself amongst the goals after a long spell without finding the net.
James Collins and Winston Reid are expected to keep their place at the heart of our defence are their solid display at Goodison Park last Tuesday, while it should be business as usual for the likes of Stewart Downing, Mark Noble, Aaron Cresswell, Carl Jenkinson and the ever-improving Adrian in goal.
Here are the confirmed starting line-ups for tonight’s FA Cup third round replay at the Boleyn Ground…
TEAMS: #WHUFC Adrian, Cresswell, Tomkins, Jarvis, Carroll, Downing, Noble (c), Jenkinson, Collins, Song, Valencia #WHUFC #COYI
