Everton vs Southampton - Premier League LIVE: Goals and latest updates, where to watch, TV channel, odds and more

Southampton are the visitors to Goodison Park as new Everton manager Marco Silva takes charge of his first home league game.

The hosts were dug out of a hole last weekend by new signing Richarlison, who scored a goal in each half at Molineux against Wolves to ensure the new era under the Portuguese did not begin on a losing note.

Silva’s team were rocked twenty minutes after the Brazilian’s opener after Phil Jagielka was sent off in the first half. A similar result was in store for Southampton the following day, when they were held to a goalless draw by Burnley at St Mary’s.

Keeper Alex McCarthy and new loan signing Danny Ings were particularly impressive for Mark Hughes’s side.

It’s a big game for…

Theo Walcott: The 29-year-old may have kept true to his defensive duties against Wolves, but Marco Silva will be hoping that the former Arsenal forward can lend a helping hand to Richarlison going the other way when he faces the club where it all began for him 13 years ago. The England international managed just three goals from 14 appearances last campaign, another area in which he will need to chip in in order to help out the Brazilian forward if Everton are to have a successful season.

Stat…

Thirteen: Everton are unbeaten in their last 13 home league games against Southampton, a run which includes nine victories, since their 0-2 defeat to the Saints in November 1997.

Remember when…

The 1-0 scoreline in the fixture between these two sides in April 2015 may not have caught the eye, but Tim Howard certainly provided an eye-catching save for the Goodison faithful. Italy striker Graziano Pelle stuck out a leg to meet Shane Long’s cross, and the ball looked to be looping over the American goalkeeper before he clawed the ball away in the nick of time. The save, along with Phil Jagielka’s goal, ended up helping out Merseyside rivals Liverpool, who would have been replaced by the Saints in fifth place had they left Goodison victorious.

Player to watch…

Richarlison: The Brazilian could not have made a better start to life at Everton with two goals that dragged his side through to a draw. His first goal may have been on the scrappy side, but his second demonstrated the qualities that persuaded his new club to pay Watford an initial £35m for his services, gliding in between the Wolves defenders before slotting the ball into the bottom corner. If he shows the work rate that he did against Wolves as well, Everton may have an answer up front.
